Moeen Ali, the skipper of England says it was very good to get close, he's disappointed they lost, they failed to score against the spinners but he's happy they got close. States the wicket was a little difficult but with the dew, it wasn't easy to bowl too. Credits the way Wood bowled and says he gets the important wickets.

Mohammad Rizwan is the Player of the Match for his excellent knock of fifty. Rizwan says it's just a bruise and he hopes he gets fine before the next game.

Credits the way the bowlers bowled.

...Presentation next...

Earlier in the day, apart from Mohammad Rizwan, no one made a huge impact. His fifty and some crucial runs at the back end helped Pakistan reach near 150. England were brilliant with the ball. They chose to bowl and did the job brilliantly. Wood claimed three wickets. In reply, the batters of England didn't replicate what their bowlers did and Pakistan held their nerves till the end with the ball to defend this below-par score. They now lead the series 3-2.

England will be very disappointed! They have lost two close games in a row now from a commanding position. They had a low score to chase but were pushed on the back foot as they were three down inside the Powerplay. Malan kept his wicket but perished while looking to change the gears. It was over Moeen Ali to cross the line. He batted till the end and backed himself till the final over but it just didn't happen for him. A better start could have helped England to win this game.

What a game of cricket! England were the favorites at the innings break, with all the conditions favoring them. It was but the home side who believed and kept it tight overall. Pakistan had to defend a low score and they did well to pressurize the visitors from the start. They took three wickets and kept on taking wickets throughout the innings. It was the spinners who did the job in the middle overs while the seamers in the back end, kept things tight. Overall, everyone ended with a wicket atleast. Credit to Aamer Jamal as the debutant showed great nerves to bowl the final over and win the match for his team.

What a thriller this game turned out to be! Take a bow, Aamer Jamal! On his debut, he has done a very tough job! Pakistan for the first time take a lead in this 7-match series.

Aamer Jamal does for his team! What a debut for Jamal! A length ball on middle. David Willey lofts it to long on. Pakistan win by 6 runs.

JUST A SINGLE! This is full again, outside off. Ali shuffles across and drives it to covers for one. 7 runs needed now. Are we up for a super over?

Dot again! The debutant is doing well! A widish yorker. Ali fails to jam it out cleanly. 8 runs needed in 2 balls.

SIX! That is why Ali wanted to keep the strike! Fifty up but the job is not done yet! A length ball, outside off. Ali stays back and thumps it over long on for a biggie. 8 runs needed now.

Wide! This is full but way outside off. Left alone for a wide.

DOT AGAIN! Ali wants to finish the game! This is full and outside off. Ali steps across and drives it to long off. Denies the run.

A full toss, outside off. Ali mistimes his drive and the ball goes off the inside edge and rolls on the deck. A dot ball.

David Willey comes in. Aamer Jamal to bowl the final over.

OUT!! CAUGHT! Woakes goes now! This is full and way outside off. Woakes tries to drag it across but mistimes it completely and it goes more off the top edge to long on where Iftikhar Ahmed takes a simple catch. 15 runs needed off the last over.
