Haris Rauf to Ryan Burl, 2 runs, dropped by Haider Ali at deep square leg! Was a slower one by Haris Rauf and Ryan Burl swung it high up in the nightsky. For a moment it looked as if this will clear the boundary, but proves to be a straightforward chance for Haider who puts it down

Mohammad Wasim Jr to Brad Evans, out Bowled!!

Brad Evans was attempting a slog, but could connect thin air as it was delivered at nearly 145 clicks. With three balls remaining in this innings, Mohammad Wasim Jr has a chance to get a give-wicket haul. Can he get it? Brad Evans b Mohammad Wasim Jr 19(15) [6s-1]

Zim lost their 8th wicket

ZIM 130/8 (20)

CRR: 6.5

It is a meager total, an easy target for Pak.

A solid comeback by Pakistan as they have managed to restrict Zimbabwe to a pretty mediocre total. Zimbabwe had gotten off to a flier as the openers added 42 runs, but the bowling team pulled things back emphatically after that. Haris Rauf bowled a wily spell and gave hardly anything away. While Shadab claimed three wickets and Mohammad Wasim Jr registered his career best as he bagged four wickets. Zimbabwe were 95/3 in the 14th over, and were suddenly reduced to 95/7 - due to those wickets by Shadab and Wasim.

From 95 for 3 to 95 for 7, it was always going to be difficult for Zimbabwe to recover following such a rapid collapse. But they've scrapped to get to 130 for 8. Still it would take something extraordinary for Pakistan to stuff this up. However, I'm sure their fans will be quick to correct me and say that Pakistan is just the team to be capable of such a stuff up based on their chaotic cricket history. It means this is a can't miss chase. Andrew Miller will be back in the central commentary position for the start of the Pakistan reply.
