4 on debut in the first T20I, and appeared ill-suited to the demands of trying to nail down a spot in Pakistan's ever-changing middle-order roster, where the openers' methodical run-plundering often requires those who come after to tee off straight away.

But hopes of an encore were quickly scotched, as England's reshaped attack ripped out the cream of Pakistan's batting. Having reeled in 200 while barely breaking sweat the night before, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan were the key men for Pakistan as they attempted what would have been a record chase.

Sharp short delivery, on middle and leg, Haris Rauf goes on the leg side and tries to pull but all he manages is a top edge. Shan Masood laid down the marker for a permanent spot in the starting XI with his effort but all in all, it was a pretty abject show from the Men in Green.
