- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 jabbed off the pads and Salt is run out by a mile! He hurtled through for the single to short fine leg, Malan was still trying to see where the ball had gone, he ended up running the best part of two runs himself, and though the shy lacked power, it was accurate enough to ping down the stumps at the far end! 39/24.1 there's the breakthrough! Hales is pinned plumb in front of all three, a full-length nipbacker, thumping the knee-roll as the bat swung late across the line. That is a very timely wicket for Pakistan, with the tempo just slowed by Rauf the over before 39/19.5 stunning work from Rizwan! Duckett rocks back for a cut, under-edges into the pitch, and the keeper ninjas out his right glove, snaffles the bouncing ball high to his right, and whacks off the bails while the batter is still completing his stroke! It actually counts as a run-out, because the ball was gathered in front of the stumps, but that was effectively a stumping 101/3Extras17 (b 4, lb 3, w 10)TOTAL209/3 (20 Overs, RR: 10.45)Fall of wickets: 1-39 (Alex Hales, 4.1 ov), 2-39 (Phil Salt, 4.3 ov), 3-101 (Ben Duckett, 9.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 castled! Inswing on the full length, Rizwan falls early too, and is that the game? He was through his stroke too soon as the ball bent into his off stump, then hit the seam to beat his flick across the line. The series is up for grabs now! 5/20.6 poked in the air and straight at short cover! Woakes has made the critical incision! Not quite to the pitch of another delivery in the channel, a fraction slower out of the hand, played on the up and Lahore goes quiet as the skipper falls 5/118.6 Rashid scoops a blinder! Sliced towards short third and he springs to his right to hold a low, diving catch. Masood did pretty well for 56 off 43 - even if the situation demanded a lot more - but he'll trudge off to the dressing room with one more over of this game to go 135/75.1 back of a length, slapped to the keeper! Pace off on the short ball, Iftikhar went for the big wiping cut, but feathered the top-edge through to Salt, and Willey was chuckling with glee before the ball had even been swallowed. This contest is rapidly running out of jeopardy 33/312.2 sliding down leg, Salt appeals, up goes the finger... given out caught behind! Khushdil reviews straight away. But his confidence was misplaced, because there's a tickle on UltraEdge and Ahsan Raza's decision will stand! 86/414.5 picks out deep backward square! The short ball with pace off does for Asif, as he looks for the big hit but only succeeds in holing out to the man on the rope. Topley pouches it safely and Pakistan are heading for a thumping here 99/517.4 bumper, pulled to deep backward square leg! Didn't get much above hip height but Nawaz simply helped it down the throat of the fielder, Woakes stooping low for a catch a few yards in 125/619.1 bowled 'im! Wasim walks across his stumps looking to ramp, only for Willey to hit the top of off. Stump out of the ground. Pakistan have been flattened in this game 135/8Extras8 (lb 3, w 5)TOTAL142/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.1)Did not bat: Shadab KhanFall of wickets: 1-5 (Babar Azam, 0.6 ov), 2-5 (Mohammad Rizwan, 1.2 ov), 3-33 (Iftikhar Ahmed, 5.1 ov), 4-86 (Khushdil Shah, 12.2 ov), 5-99 (Asif Ali, 14.5 ov), 6-125 (Mohammad Nawaz, 17.4 ov), 7-135 (Shan Masood, 18.6 ov), 8-135 (Mohammad Wasim, 19.1 ov)
