Pakistan 125-6 (40 overs) vs India 167

It is the last over of Batting Powerplay and Pakistan looking to attack Jadeja. Hafeez tries to loft it over the off-side but mistimes it and it goes on the bounce to the fielder at long-off.

Akmal's impatience finally costs him his wicket. He gives Jadeja the charge but the spinner beats him and Dhoni completes the stumping to dismiss Akmal for 25 and make the match more interesting.

Pakistan's tail begins as Umar Gul walks out to bat. India will be looking to keep it tight and force the batsmen into mistakes.

Gul plays three dot balls to end the over in which Jadeja has conceded just a single while picking up a wicket. His figures read one for 19 in nine overs.

Pakistan need 43 runs from 10 overs for victory with four wickets in hand. They lost two for 12 in the last five overs to give India some hope.
