Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Mohammad Rizwan, FOUR! Starts with a length ball outside off, Mohammad Rizwan cuts it through point for a boundary. Good start for Pakistan!

21:26 (IST) Sep 04

It does happen in T20s, powerplay is so important in T20s, they started well, but we got a wicket with the final over and then made a good comeback. I just try and keep it simple, don't overcomplicate things, I've struggled at times doing that. If your accuracy is good, the wickets will come. We did well towards the end, the two boundaries took away some of the momentum, but if we start well in the batting powerplay, we are in this chase. The pitch is good, the ball is coming onto the bat and you can play your shots.

Shadab Khan (2 for 31)

Pakistan did really well to come back into the game as they did because with the start they had with the ball, their pacers looked to be in for a long night. The trio of Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf and Mohammad Hasnain were spitting fire but the ball was coming on a bit too well onto the bat and they were hit away with ease. It was the repair work done by the spinners in the middle overs that really paved the way for the pacers to come back in later on get wickets. Mohammad Nawaz and Shadab Khan were brilliant and Pakistan will keep in mind that this total is definitely getable.

21:22 (IST) Sep 04

India got off to an absolute flier with both openers taking a liking to the raw pace of the Pakistani bowlers. They managed to score 62 runs inside the Powerplay and having lost just their skipper, they were on course for a big total. KL Rahul got out soon after and after that it was only Virat Kohli who stayed on the crease as the wickets kept tumbling. With the score at 93/2 at the halfway mark, India would have looked to get to the 200-run mark but the middle order failed. Kohli ended up with 60 runs and India somehow managed to scrape over the 180-run mark which is a par score given how the pitch is playing.

21:19 (IST) Sep 04

A brilliant contest between bat and ball in the first half but on the whole, India will be happier of the two sides going into the break as they have the late momentum with those two late boundaries. Pakistan though did really well to restrict India well below 200.

21:16 (IST) Sep 04
That's it! India 181/7 after 20 overs
Haris Rauf bowled a brilliant last over but gave away 10 runs in it due to two misfields. Virat Kohli (60 off 44 balls) was run-out while going for a second run and a strike, but Ravi Bishnoi (8* off 2) got two lucky fours off the last two balls thanks to Fakhar Zaman.

Score181 - 7

Haris Rauf to Ravi Bishnoi, DROPPED AND FOUR! Two pieces of really poor fielding from Fakhar Zaman has seen India end the innings with a couple of boundaries. A low full toss, wide of the off stump, Ravi Bishnoi slashes it aerially towards deep point. Zaman comes in from the deep and ends up overrunning the ball. Zaman tries to adjust and take the take behind him but the ball goes off the palms and trickles into the fence. A brilliant over by Haris Rauf is ruined and India finish with 181/7!

21:15 (IST) Sep 04

Ravi Bishnoi walks in next.

21:14 (IST) Sep 04

Is that a run-out? An absolute bullet of a throw from the deep by Asif Ali and he gets in the direct hit at the striker's end. Virat Kohli seems to be struggling here and the umpires go upstairs. The replays show that the dive didn't save Kohli and he has to walk back.

Haris Rauf to Ravi Bishnoi, FOUR! An attempted yorker from Haris Rauf but ends up bowling a low full toss. Ravi Bishnoi slices it through point. Fakhar Zaman charges it early and misfields it. The ball races away the fence. This might turn out costly for Pakistan.

Hooda falls! India 171/6 after 19 overs
Excellent over from Naseem Shah at this stage -- a big wicket and just 7 runs in the penultimate over. Deepak Hooda (16) was holed out at deep mid-wicket by Mohammad Nawaz, who took a brilliant catch. Pakistan have bounced back well so far after the flying start for India.
