- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.3 Dragged on. It landed on a length, outside the off stump and held its line a touch, Ganguly's bat came outside the line as he pushed at it, without moving his feet, away from the body and the ball collided with the inside edge before crashing into the stumps. Four and then gone. 6/125.4 And he won't get here too. This is the 5th time he has fallen in 90's in ODI this year, 3rd time he has got out on 99 in this year.. It was a length delivery outside off stump, held its line and Tendulkar tried to run it to third man for the single but sent it to right of Akmal who dives to take a fine catch. Almost Kris Srikkanthish dismissal. Guiding it off the face of the bat. 179/227.3 Twin strike. Gambhir follows Tendulkar. Fullish, on the middle and leg, whipped straight to Afridi at midwicket. Soft dismissal and Pakistan swing right back into the game. 186/336.6 The death rattle. The off stump has been pegged back. A quicker one, a slider on the off stump line, Sehwag tried to give himself some room and cut but missed it completely. 239/439.4 Caught at deep midwicket. It was a slower one, a tad short in length, coming in from just outside off stump and Yuvraj had to adjust to the change of pace but decides to go through with the pull and sends it high towards the deep midwicket fielder 259/542.1 One more wicket down. India have lost their seventh wicket and are in danger of being bowled out before the 50 overs. It kicked up from short of length, outside off stump, Dhoni went for a cut but was done in by the extra bounce 266/739.6 Similar delivery - it landed on the off stump line and moved away at the last minute, Uthappa again pushed at it as he lunged forward and is hit on the pad. Replays sugges it would have missed the off stump. 260/644.3 Pakistan continue to fightback. Akthar bowls a bouncer at the body, Irfan, never comfortable against the short one, is late on the pull short and top edges it to fine leg 278/849.2 yorker length delivery on the off stump line, inside edges a drive to short fine leg, Zaheers wants a run, Harbhajan doesn't and Akmal runs Zaheer out with a direct hit 311/9Extras41 (lb 7, nb 3, w 31)TOTAL321/9 (50 Overs, RR: 6.42)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Sourav Ganguly, 0.3 ov), 2-179 (Sachin Tendulkar, 25.4 ov), 3-186 (Gautam Gambhir, 27.3 ov), 4-239 (Virender Sehwag, 36.6 ov), 5-259 (Yuvraj Singh, 39.4 ov), 6-260 (Robin Uthappa, 39.6 ov), 7-266 (MS Dhoni, 42.1 ov), 8-278 (Irfan Pathan, 44.3 ov), 9-311 (Zaheer Khan, 49.2 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR14.5 Big wicket. Salman is out. It was a slow off cutter, coming in from just outside off to cramp-up Salman who stabbed at it. The ball missed the bat, clipped the flap of the front pad and went on to the stumps 81/25.3 Blinder from Yuvraj at point. It was short in length, angling away from Akmal who blasted a cut to the right of Yuvraj who manages to hang on to a stinging catch 38/145.2 The leg stump has been pegged back. Done in by the slower one. Younis shuffled across, intending to swing to the leg side, Zaheer sends a slower one on the leg stump, full and dipping just in front of the leg stump, Younis fails to connect with his swing and he is gone. It has been very fine knock from him. His third ODI century and his first against India. 276/522.5 Done in by the doosra. It landed on a length, just outside off stump, sucking Yousuf out of the crease before it broke away, leaving him stranded. Dhoni breaks the stumps and India strike 105/332.4 and gone! Harbhajan delivers another killer blow. Tossed up on the stumps, Malik comes down the track and tries to loft it over the long-on fence but fails to hit it cleanly. Pathan in the deep makes no mistake 174/446.4 Would you believe it? Misbah-ul-Haq must be feeling a sense of deja-vu. Again out as he tries to walk across the sticks and paddle. That Twenty20 feeling all over again. It was full, straight, outside offstump, Misbah had walked right across the sticks, attempted a paddle, a lap around the corner but he sent it straight on to the stumps. Death rattle. 283/6Extras26 (lb 9, nb 1, w 16)TOTAL322/6 (49.5 Overs, RR: 6.46)Fall of wickets: 1-38 (Kamran Akmal, 5.3 ov), 2-81 (Salman Butt, 14.5 ov), 3-105 (Mohammad Yousuf, 22.5 ov), 4-174 (Shoaib Malik, 32.4 ov), 5-276 (Younis Khan, 45.2 ov), 6-283 (Misbah-ul-Haq, 46.4 ov)
