Spinners did a magnificent job for England! England bowlers were punished a bit at the start but Saqib Mohammad picked up the crucial wicket of Babar Azam right in the final over of the powerplay. After that, Adil Rashid came back into the attack and got rid of Sohaib Maqsood of a beauty who was looking to up the tempo. After Mohammad Rizwan got out, runs dried up completely for Pakistan. They struggled to keep the runs flowing. They were kept quiet throughout the middle overs. The Spin trio of Adil Rashid, Moeen Ali and Matthew Parkison did exceedingly well to keep Pakistan on the back foot. The spinners never gave a chance to their batters to take the game away. The spinners shared 5 wickets between them out of the 9 wickets that fell. Saqib Mahmood in the 19th over scalped two wickets and that was enough for England to level the series 1-1.

Pakistan never looked in the game! 200 was always going to be an uphill task and Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam attacked the bowlers well at the start but Babar Azam got out in the final over of the Powerplay. Mohammad Rizwan and Sohaib Maqsood tried to up the ante but Sohaib Maqsood fell early too. After that, they needed Mohammad Rizwan to stay at the crease but it was not to be. He got out as well and with that hopes in the dug-out camp started to fall apart. Wickets kept tumbling for them and none of the batters managed to stitch on a partnership which was very much needed with the required rate creeping up. None of the batters could stay out at the middle and play longer innings which was very crucial for them. A rather loose batting performance from them and they will now have to wait for the final T20I for the decider.
