Jofra Archer to Saim Ayub, out Caught by Jacob Bethell!! The short ball does the trick. 145ks angling away just outside off, Ayub looks to pull and gets it off the thick toe-edge into the leg-side. He was clearly hurried by the pace and the edge carried all the way down to the sprinting fielder at deep square to his left. Saim Ayub c Jacob Bethell b Jofra Archer 7(7) [4s-1]

Jofra Archer to Saim Ayub, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Pak-- 14/1 after 2.1 overs.

Salman OUT

Saim Ayub’s batting in this tournament

vs spin: 13 off 9 balls, one dismissal, SR: 144.4

vs pace: 57 off 42 balls, four dismissals, SR: 135.7

He has not survived the powerplay in all 5 innings this WC

Babar Azam OUT

Sahibzyada is still there.

Team batting first has had an advantage. I think it's easy for Pakistan if they score anywhere over 160

Liam Dawson to Usman Khan, out Caught by Jamie Overton!! Usman Khan c Jamie Overton b Liam Dawson 8(5) [6s-1]

Liam Dawson to Usman Khan, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Another wicket down!!

Pak--146/7

England is taking wickets but Pakistan is scoring unbothered that's a good thing for them.

it would be super easy for them to protect anything over 160 with the way wicket is behaving

If England does not defeat pakistan today I will request our PM to impose duguna lagaan on them

Jofra Archer to Shaheen Afridi, out Caught by Sam Curran!! Shaheen Afridi pulls this short ball towards deep backward square leg and Sam Curran holds onto a safe catch at the edge of the boundary. Kept his eyes on the ball and reverse cupped it. Managed to stay away from the boundary at the same time. Shaheen Afridi c Sam Curran b Jofra Archer 2(3)

Jofra Archer to Shaheen Afridi, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Pak-- 149/8

8 more balls left to score

will be next to impossible for them to win. They took wickets but Pakistan kept on hitting

they had 67 runs in 6 overs despite 2 wickets falling. That took away the match from England
