    23.5 gone, Pakistan finally break through. Pitched up to Rahul, and the batsman looked to play on the front foot, and guide it through the covers. Instead, it spooned up to Babar Azam for the most comfortable catch he'll ever take 136/1
    38.2 scooped straight to short fine leg. Didn't have the pace to work with. Hasan shortened his length, rolled his fingers over the seam. Good execution. I think Rohit almost forgot there's a fielder there, he's absolutely livid with himself. End of a top knock, got to say a double century was there on a platter and he's missed out. 234/2
    47.4 gone, is he? Pakistan have Kohli! Quick bouncer, too quick for Kohli, who tried to swivel and pull it to fine leg. Gets the faintest of edges, and a prolonged appeal moves the umpire's finger 314/5
    43.5 and gone! Stunned silence from three fourths of the crowd. Helicopter shot from Pandya again, and it found the middle of his bat, but just didn't quite have the power to clear Babar Azam at long-on. Massive breakthrough for Pakistan 285/3
    45.1 Dhoni is gone, Amir strikes! The former Indian captain looked to heave at one that was full and wide, and another thick edge goes through to Sarfaraz 298/4

    4.5 huge appeal and he's struck first ball with a nip-backer! Vijay is delighted as are the rest of his mates. Imam is walking off. Massive break for India from an unlikely source. This is bowled full, swung back in a hint, but the doubt remains. Did it pitch outside leg? Could Pakistan have reviewed? Will need a replay to confirm everything, but what is confirmed is Pakistan have lost their first wicket. 13/1
    25.2 he's top-edged this sweep to short fine. What a tame end to a promising innings. This was tossed up, he was sweeping against the turn, didn't get on top of the bounce and ended up giving a dolly to Chahal. Back-to-back wickets for Kuldeep. This is quickly slipping away from Pakistan. 126/3
    23.6 through the gate! Incredible delivery from a supremely talented bowler. Everything about this delivery is the kind of stuff dreams are made of for a left-arm wristspinner. Nicely tossed up, the ball drifts away gently across Babar, pitches and then wickedly spins back in. Babar is looking to get outside the line to block, but is completely deceived by the dip, and then because he's played down the wrong line with a bit of gap between bat and pad, there's no second line of defence. Babar was worried about the wrong'un. Sneaks through the gap, clean bowled. Wow, what a ball. Magnificent. 117/2
    26.5 he's picked out the lone man at deep square. Oh, dear. What have you done, Hafeez? Elegantly flicked but timed it a bit too well. Pandya's turn to make a splash. How this game has turned. 129/4
    34.1 and gone! The Pakistan captain drags on. Looked to drive expansively through the offside. gets an inside edge instead, and the ball clatters into leg stump. Another nail in an already tightly secured Pakistan coffin 165/6
    26.6 oh, it's a golden duck! The extra bounce from Hardik does the trick. Effort ball, got this to bounce off a length, just around off, Malik with a feeble push from the crease and ends up chopping on. Didn't ride the bounce, was perhaps surprised by it too. If that's the last we've seen of Malik in this World Cup, it'll be a bit sad. But he's now got two ducks in a row. 129/5
