England won the toss and chose to bowl in the 2nd T20I versus Pakistan.
Pakistan cruising at 87/1 after 10 overs
Pakistan look in total control at the half-way stage of their batting innings. Opening batsmen Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman put up an opening partnership of 72 runs before Adil Rashid bowled a wide delivery outside leg-stump to Fakhar Zaman which he mistimed into the air for Tom Banton to take a comfortable catch. Fakhar departed for a well made 36 runs off just 22 balls, hitting 5 fours and a six to give Pakistan a great start.
That went HIGH! 🤲

With experience batsmen like Hafeez and Shoaib Malik to come, followed by the hard hitting ability of Rizwan and Iftikhar Ahmed, Pakistan will be eyeing to post a big total of well above 170-180 runs. Anything below that at this stage would require a great bowling effort from the home team for the remaining part of this innings.
