Pakistan 215-2 (37.1 ovs) vs England 211 (49.5 ovs) | Scorecard

Stokes continues and is pulled for a four by Hafeez to bring up the winning runs.

Pakistan beat England by 8 wickets to enter their first Champions Trophy final. They will either face India or Bangladesh in the final on Sunday.

What a way to bring up the victory.

10 needed and Moeen is cut square through the off-side field for a boundary.

Another cut shot and Hafeez gets him team closer to the target. Pakistan now two runs away.

Hafeez tucks the ball down to deep square leg for a single and the scores are level.

Stokes brought back into the attack as Pakistan need just 25 more to win.

Stokes starts with a bouncer, sqaure leg umpire calls it no-ball. That's a free-hit and Hafeez tonks it for lovely six over long on.

Stokes then follows that up with a wide.

Next ball, Pakistan find the gap and scamper for a run.

Classic cover drive! Azam drives the ball through the covers for a four. That brings up the 200 for Pakistan.

Short ball, Azam plays the hook and gets a single.

Hafeez ends the over with a single.

Drinks called.

Ball continues and gives away 4 runs in the over.

Hafeez's beautiful square cut and some athletic fielding by Bairstow on the boundary was the highlight of the over.

Rashid continues and that is a dramatic over. A missed stumping from Buttler gives Hafeez a life and he takes complete advantage of it by smashing a huge six over long off .
