11.05pm: That's a wrap for tonight, thanks for keeping us company. These two teams can't be separated, so we'll be back for one last dance in Lahore on Sunday, with the series spoils on the line. You'll find Danyal's report up on the site shortly, and Matt Roller will have more to come from the ground. From myself, Vish and Raghav, it's good night. Bye!

10.55pm: Time for some presentations (at least, it should be)... Phil Salt is Player of the Match: "Definitely [best T20I knock], nice to do it with the series in the balance. Always a challenge at the top when you feel you're playing well but picking out fielders and finding ways to get out. Pleased with the backing from the management about how they want me to play. You need competition, the best sides have that. Everyone's trying to put their best foot forward and show the coaches how good they are."

Pakistan captain Babar Azam is next up: [Paraphrased from Urdu by the interviewer] "Thought it was a good score, could have got 10-15 more. England's use of the powerplay was the turning point. Middle order roles, players need to take responsibility, hope they will in the next game."

England captain Moeen Ali: "Very happy, thought the way we batted in particular was outstanding. Shows if you stick to the process, you don't have to slog you can play proper shots. And I thought the seamers were outstanding today. If you don't lose wickets early on you can keep going. Good base, good shots, really impressive performance. Another good game, I hope, it's been a brilliant series. We feel we've learned a lot as a group. [Buttler] He's feeling good, been training a bit more. Whether or not we risk him for one game, we'll see.

10.45pm: After two nerve-shredding, nail-biting defences from Pakistan, England get their chasing mojo back, and in some style. Phil Salt's career-best 88 not out brings them victory with 33 balls to spare, and means we will have a decider in Lahore on Sunday night. The dew is probably due some credit, too, as batting seemed to get a lot easier as the game wore on; but England's pedal-to-the-metal approach will rarely prove more effective than that, all of the home attack going at more than 10 an over other than Shadab Khan, who picked up a respectable 2 for 34. This seven-match series is going all the way, baby!

Our stats man, Sampath, has this: "Second biggest win in terms of balls to spare while chasing a target of 170 and more"

"Assuming England win (as seems likely), it sets up Sunday's game beautifully. Tickets will be selling like hot cakes in the Tapal Tea lounge." The only tea lounge in town, James

Mohammad Wasim is back

"Condiments to Abdullah for his 'Assault' play on words," snorts mickeyscan

"Let's be honest, this series and both teams are fully deserving of a decider!" Can't argue with that, Adam
