H Pandya to B Azam, FOUR! Deft and effective! Short of a length and there is room on offer, Azam shows finesse as he waits for the ball to arrive and glides it past the keeper through to the third man fence.

Kuldeep Yadav to have a bowl now. He has a truck load of tricks up his sleeve. Let's see how the Pakistan batsmen tackle him. Laxman Sivaramakrishnan on air informs that Chahal is off the field. Not sure about the reason though.
