India vs Pakistan, Final - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Faheem Ashraf to Shivam Dube, out Caught by Shaheen Afridi!! Taken! Excellent catch under pressure. Pakistan are not out of this. This is turning out to be a classic India v Pakistan. Once again Faheem roars and double fists pump. Slower ball bowled into the wicket, Dube decides to go over the off-side, does not get it off the middle and almost ends up slicing it to long-off. Shaheen stations himself right on the edge of the rope and takes it calmly. Shivam Dube c Shaheen Afridi b Faheem Ashraf 33(22) [4s-2 6s-2]

Faheem Ashraf to Tilak Varma, SIX, the final over of the powerplay is always crucial when the bowling team is doing well but that is exactly what Tilak is trying to capitalize on. Four earlier, six now will ease all the pressure. Poor length delivery down leg, Tilak said thank you very much and played the pick up shot over long leg

Faheem Ashraf to Gill, out Caught by Haris Rauf!! In the airrrr, taken! Very good catch at mid-on from Haris jumping and grabbing this overhead. Was overbalancing but did well to cling on and Faheem Ashraf is charged up again. Gill wanted back-to-back fours and used his feet again. Didn't middle this at all and he flat-batted the pull. Haris was sharp with his catching and India have lost three now. Pakistan certainly have a good grip on this game. India need some calmness in the middle. Gill c Haris Rauf b Faheem Ashraf 12(10) [4s-1]

Faheem Ashraf to Abhishek Sharma, out Caught by Haris Rauf!! This is a mishit, taken at mid-on. Faheem Ashraf roars and literally celebrates in the face of the batter. We were wondering if Shaheen would try a slower ball first up to Abhishek but Faheem Ashraf did and got his man with a 111kph cutter. Abhishek in his ultra aggressive mindset was always looking to take on the bowler. Faheem got this slower ball wide of off to make Abhishek reach for it and all the batter could do was toe-end it to the fielder as he was early into the shot. Abhishek Sharma c Haris Rauf b Faheem Ashraf 5(6) [4s-1]
