Full commentary
end of over 205 runs • 2 wickets
PAK: 146/10CRR: 7.30

Chris Jordan 4-0-37-0
A breathless game that was more one-sided than Pakistan's tail let on. Sam Billings produced a brilliant cameo, Liam Plunkett unleashed fury and hellfire. Stephen Parry's superb spell of slow-mo spin was critical. And Pakistan never recovered from the failings of their top-order.
So, thanks for reading. Have a look at George Dobell's match report, which will be updated here shortly, and have a gander at this factoid as well. In becoming the oldest player from a Test country to make his T20I debut, Rafatullah Mohmand beat a few with more than 20,000 international runs. More in our Top Fives.
Shakeena Samadh: "Mr. Miller make sure to remind people of tomorrows pink ball thriller too :)" Oh yes, indeed. History in the making at Adelaide tonight... tune in, or drop out.
Join us again tomorrow for the second match of three.

Topley to Tanvir, 1 run
bunted down to Moeen at long-off, who gathers on the bounce

Topley to Tanvir, no run
swished down the ground, but all along the ground
So Imran Khan, Test cricket's runless wonder, is at the crease. EDIT: Apparently it's a different Imran Khan. Of course it is. They are legion!
Aftab.Dawn: "@Miller: for you what was the turning point of this match?" Billings' Billscoops ...

Topley to Wahab Riaz, OUT
smashed down the ground! Huge excitement for a split-second as the crowd sense a six, but Moeen at long-on is in position to poop the party ...

Topley to Wahab Riaz, FOUR runs
similar delivery, Wahab stands his ground this time and flails a one-bounce four over long-off!

•
Topley to Wahab Riaz, no run
outside off, swinging away, and Topley gets away with one. The batsman gave himself too much room to connect with his wallop

Jordan to Wahab Riaz, 1 run
full toss again, but shanked to mid-off. Twenty from six is the equation
18.5
4
Jordan to Wahab Riaz, FOUR runs
full toss, flashed away past the diving Billings! Another four, and Pakistan cling to hope!
Ryan: "If England win and Plunkett does not get Man of the Match then it is confirmed that Cricket is a Batsmen game. I am a batsmen by the way."

Jordan to Wahab Riaz, FOUR runs
full once more, but just a fraction of width allowed Wahab to free his arms and pierce the point boundary
18.3
•
Jordan to Wahab Riaz, no run
finding his yorker again, good stuff from Jordan. This is killing Pakistan's prospects
Fine leg comes up, but a deep square leg also in place
18.2
1
Jordan to Tanvir, 1 run
spanked from a full length, but again, no chance to get under the ball and over the rope
suleman: "Aah Lords 2009, I think Pakistan have a real chance again for T20 WC, if Amir and Umer Gul gets back into the team and also their batsman starts playing responsibly."
18.1
•
Jordan to Tanvir, no run
very full, angled across the left-hander, very difficult to get any power or elevation on that
So, 30 runs from 12 balls. And Jordan back in the attack. A big over now is a must for Pakistan

Topley to Tanvir, 1 run
yorker. Good comeback. No getting that one away
17.6
1w
Topley to Tanvir, 1 wide
slower ball, clever thinking (I think) but a bit of a jumbled release. Out of the back of the hand, like a badly executed Jade Dernbach impression
17.5
•
Topley to Tanvir, no run
lovely ball, an inswinging yorker, just grazes past the off stump. But the priceless dot is almost as important

Topley to Tanvir, no run
slower ball, and well bowled that time

Topley to Tanvir, SIX runs
flogged, on the up, over midwicket. Get some of that
Umer Virk: "I am following match on cricnfo and studying as well .i was wandering why afridi is not coming for bat . Then I open scorecard and I came to know he is already done as usual " He'll always have Lord's 2009 ...

Topley to Wahab Riaz, no run
down on one knee. The "will-you-marry-me" air-shot. Negative, is the jilting answer
lokesh: "Tough to say that "the game is over " both batsman at the crease have shown their capabilities with the bat at crucial times !!" It's a big ask ... can't afford many accidents... here's Topley
