Bowlers put India in control as Pakistan struggle
June 04, 2017  22:28


Pak 88-2 (20 ovs); D/L Target: 289 in 41 ovs | Scorecard


India's fielding is going from bad to worse. Azhar looks to ramp Pandya's short ball but gets it square as Yuvraj on the thirdman fence is unable to stop it and gives away a four. Captain Kohli is visibly annoyed with India's lacklustre fielding standards.

India introduce spin as Ravindra Jadeja comes into the attack. He makes a tidy start, giving away just three singles in his first over and Pandya does well to concede the same number of the runs in the next over.

Jadeja drops short as Hafeez pulls it square on the leg side for a four and two balls later Azhar survives a close shout for leg before wicket as he looks to play the sweep.

Umesh bowls a superb over, keeping Hafeez glued to the crease with well directed short of length deliveries before he takes a single off the last ball.

Pakistan are 88 for two in 20 overs, needing 201 from 21 overs for victory at 9.5 per over.
