Who said What?

Babar Azam, Pakistan captain: The way Hyderabad has supported us, we've been happy and have enjoyed the hospitality. I am satisfied with the result. Credit to the bowlers, we started well and took wickets in the middle. We lost three wickets while batting, the way Rizwan and Shakeel started took it away. The way Saud built his innings shows his improvement in building an innings. Our bowlers bowled well in the first ten. They stuck to the plan.

Scott Edwards, Netherlands captain: It's a bit disappointing. Firstly, we bowled and fielded well. We thought they were par. We thought we had a good chance at 2 for 120. Probably a bit of instinct. So many of our bats bowl spin. De Leede is a quality cricket in all three departments. His innings was awesome, just needed someone to be with him. Not spoken to van Beek, need to see where he's at. This is a game that got away. We know they have quality bowlers but they took wickets which held us back.

Saud Shakeel, POTM: Very pleased. Tried to follow my basics and be positive to score for my team. Nerves was there as we'd lost three wickets. I was lucky to get early boundaries. We discussed that the pressure would transfer if we scored, which did happen. The last 2-3 months, I've been working hard. I knew I'd be batting No. 5, I tried to improve my shots, attacking options and be brave. Coaching staff has given me confidence. Says he prefers either pace or spin as long as it brings boundaries. He thanks his coach as he goes

85 required of the final ten overs

NRR continues to suffer for Pakistan, as they leak runs for the final dust. How long will they take?

Netherlands require 101 runs off 72 balls, but they have a solitary wicket to defend. How far can will they go?

Hasan Ali shatters the timber

Hasan Ali, back into the attack, bowls a screamer to send Aryan Dutt packing. Last wicket remaining now. It seems we have an early goodbye tonight.

Oh.! What a strike into the crowd!!!!!

Logan van Beek absolutely muscles one by Shadab to hit the ball out of the park. A huge maximum.

Run Out!

Roelof van der Merwe runs himself out, as Logan van Beek at non-striker's end denies a single. Easy grab and pull work for keeper Rizwan.

Final 15 overs of the night

Netherlands need 115 more runs to win off 90 deliveries. Can they pull it off?

Bas de Leede departs

The star of the night has been dismissed by Mohammad Nawaz with a pearler. Hits top of the off-stump, and deviates just enough to confuse the batter. Netherlands 165 for 7 after 34 overs.

WICKET..! Shaheen gets his first

Zulfiqar doesn't review, as it was plum. He's out LBW. Netherlands 158 for 6 after 32.1 overs.

Time for DRINKS. PAANI PEELO GUYS

32 overs gone. Netherlands need to really up the ante, if they are to fancy their chances in this game. They need 119 more of 18 overs. Can they manage an upset?

Shaheen bowls a tidy over!

Just two runs came off that over from Shaheen Afridi. Netherlands are 152 for 5 after 31 overs.

An appeal for stumping

Rizwan whips off the bails in a flash, but has de Leede managed to stay inside the crease? Seems touch-and-go. He does well to bring drag his foot back just-in-time, and survives.
