J Bumrah to M Amir, Edged and FOUR! A slip was there in place but just too wide. Full and outside off, Amir plays the expansive drive and gets a thick edge. Flies between Dhoni and Dhawan at wide first slip. Shikhar dives to his right but can't get to it. A boundary results.

Score125 - 7

J Bumrah to F Ashraf, FOUR! Full in length and outside off, some room to work with and Ashraf pounces on it. Drives it nicely through the covers and finds the fence.

19:26 (IST) Sep 19

Drinks break. During the previous drinks break, Pakistan were in control. At this time, they've totally lost it. India have made a serious comeback with some smart and disciplined bowling from the spinners. From 85/2, they went to 121/7. All this after some dropped chances too. India on top here. Also, Mohammad Amir is the new man in.

OUT! Third wicket for Kedar Jadhav, Shadab Khan (8) stumped by MS Dhoni. Pakistan 121/7 in 33 overs

Overs32.6
Score121 - 7

K Jadhav to S Khan, OUT! Not really a surprise why Shadab decided to walk. If Dhoni's sure, then you're more or less gone. Khan decides to give the charge and seeing this, Jadhav shortens the length and fires it outside off. It goes past the outside edge and Dhoni, lightning as always, whips the bails off in a flash. It's taken upstairs and replays show that Shadab couldn't drag his back leg inside in time. That's the end of that.

19:24 (IST) Sep 19

A stumping referral against Shadab Khan is being checked upstairs by the umpire. The batsman is already walking. Probably says a lot in itself.

J Bumrah to F Ashraf, Safe! Height is an issue and it saves Ashraf. Around the wicket to Faheem, back of a length coming in on middle and leg, the batsman fails to flick and wears it on the thigh pad. A loud appeal goes up but it's denied. Rohit Sharma thinks on what to do, asks Dhoni who says he's unsure, but he anyway goes ahead with it and reviews it. Replays show it's too high and missing the stumps. India lose their review.

19:20 (IST) Sep 19

Review taken. It's for an lbw decision against Faheem Ashraf. Height maybe an issue. Let's see...
