Milne to Hafeez, FOUR, there you go! The experienced Hafeez has done it. Full ball, slams the ball over cover and that is a four. Pakistan win their 11th T20I series under Sarf in a row. 11th successive successful run-chase as well

Low full toss dipping on the batsman who slogs the ball away for the man at deep mid to take it. Big smile on the face of Milne, who knows there is still a lot to do. Did not time it at all and also was trying to hit it to the largest part of the ground. Shoaib Malik c Glenn Phillips b Milne 10(7)

Milne to Hafeez, 1 run, full ball, driven down to mid-off and they steal a single. A direct hit and Hafeez was a goner! But he survives. 6 needed now

Dot balls are precious 18.4 Southee to Shoaib Malik, 1 run, toe-ends the wide length ball to long-off for a single. 8 more needed off 8 balls. Should be easy peasy? The cliched all three results possible does not fit in. Does it? 18.3 Southee to Hafeez, 1 run, threads the cover drive into the gap and they get a single down to deep cover. Shoaib Malik wanted a double but was sent back 18.2 Southee to Shoaib Malik, 1 run, too full, bludgeoned down to long-on for a single. That was more of a jammed out hit 18.2 Southee to Shoaib Malik, wide, bowls it almost similarly. This time might have been closer to the tramline. Fifty fifty call goes in favour of Pakistan. And that is because the batsman is moving across the sticks a bit. 11 needed now 18.2 Southee to Shoaib Malik, wide, full but wide outside the
