Narine and Badree bowling...if they bowl out, I don't think the other bowlers can keep Pak down

Narine to Kamran Akmal, SIX

76/2 after 10 overs

Narine to Kamran Akmal, FOUR, slightly close to cut but makes room for himself and has placed that well, splits point and backward point perfectly

rssampat: "The West Indian's are great instinctive and reflex fielder's who pull of stunning catches & great saves, but ask them to run hard, chase the ball down, put in the hard work and boy; they do fluff up big time."

dem pks building a big score anything over 140 WI might as well give up

Williams to Kamran Akmal, 1 run, width on offer outside off, hangs back and opens the bat face to run it to third man. There is a fielder inside the circle and Azam calls for the single. Kamran is ball-watching and does not respond, Azam is more than halfway down. Kamran responds late and both make it safely in the end

80/2

Williams to Kamran Akmal, 4 leg byes

More spin as Marlon Samuels comes on..

Samuels to Kamran Akmal, OUT

Kamran Akmal c Simmons b Samuels 48 (37b 4x4 2x6) SR: 129.72

Samuels to Kamran Akmal, OUT, is that a no-ball? No, doesn't seem to be. Kamran has been given out here. Samuels fires up a high, loopy full toss and Kamran smashes it away with a flat bat. Looks to launch it into the leg side but Lendl Simmons at the deep midwicket boundary snaffles it. Seemed like it was just above waist height. The on-field umpires converge and they go upstairs. The ball was dipping on him, around waist height, and they rule that it was good enough

Kamran Akmal c Simmons b Samuels 48 (37b 4x4 2x6) SR: 129.72

End of over 13 (1 run) Pakistan 93/3 (RR: 7.15)

That was Samuels' first over in international cricket since his action was cleared

Brathwaite to Shoaib Malik, no run, dropped. Tough caught-and-bowled chance, put down. Fuller and it is chipped back to the bowler. Hit a bit hard, so not much time for Brathwaite to react. He sticks the left hand out and the ball deflects off the palm. He recovers quickly and gets up. The non-striker is backing up too far and looking for a run off the drop. He charges towards the stumps and throws the ball. It hits the stumps but the batsman has made it back

Brathwaite to Shoaib Malik, OUT

Shoaib Malik c Lewis b Brathwaite 2 (8b 0x4 0x6) SR: 25.00

they grabbed a few wickets but I think the damage has already being done by the paks

not really...if they can restrict them to 130, there is a shot they can win this

Samuels to Fakhar Zaman, SIX, too full, wide outside off and Fakhar gets down to slog. does it against the turn and he has got that bang off the middle. Clears long-on with ease

106/4

14.5 over

Narine back in action...he went for like 20 in his last over

Narine to Babar Azam, SIX

115/4
