That wicket by Jasprit Bumrah seems to have breathed new life into the Indian fans in the crowd. They are cheering every ball in the over and Pakistan slightly under pressure.

Meanwhile, the pressure has eased on Pakistan with Imad Wasim's edge racing to the third man fence. There is a good contest between bat and ball at the moment. Meanwhile, it remains to be seen when Rohit Sharma re-introduces Jasprit Bumrah. India do not have much to play with and need their best bowler in action and ideally take a couple of wickets.Ā
That wicket of Fakhar Zaman is really going to give India a lot of confidence as they hunt for a couple more. Pakistan need a partnership and with Mohammad Rizwan still there, would believe that they are ahead. But as unpredictable as the game can be, India can produce a remarkable comeback here.
OUT! Hardik Pandya has struck and the danger man Fakhar Zaman is out! The left-hander came down the track but was surprised by the bouncer. Rishabh Pant then did really well to take the catch. Is there another twist? Fakhar Zaman c Pant b Hardik Pandya 13(8)

Mohammad Rizwan and Usman Khan were involved in a mix-up and Hardik Pandya's direct hit could have helped India see the back of the latter. But he missed the stumps. Usman Khan then steps down the track and sends the ball to the fence over covers. Pakistan have the upper hand here in this match and only wickets can help India claw back into this contest.Ā
Ravindra Jadeja has been introduced into the attack and he has bowled a good over, giving away four runs. Although the boundaries aren't coming, India would be hurting with the singles as it enables both Mohammad Rizwan and Usman Khan to stitch a partnership and also edge closer to the target. India need a couple of quick wickets.Ā
