Slipping away. RRR now over 8.2 with 28 overs still to go, getting to be a really big ask.

Oh, to be a Trent Bridge now watching England's best batsman and England's most exciting batsman...

England making a mess of this, far too complacent today. Hopefully give them a wake up call.

Will it be too late? Our run-in is horrifying. Australia, India and New Zealand as the final three matches. Only hope is that they rest players for the semis (if they're through). Memories of 1999 are flooding back...........

We're no.1 in the world, the horrifying run in is theirs, not ours.

Getting to 180 off 30 overs = Job done, probably for 1 wicket more than England would have liked.

Hopefully England will keep calm, Pakistan will begin to feel the pressure, a few more bad balls. If we can get 80 off the next 10 overs for the loss of one wicket then I fancy our chances.

199-4 after 31, calm heads are required current RR 8.6 so we should be home in 15 or so overs as long as these two hang around.

Pakistan have applied the brake, either Buttler will restore order or get out.

Great job from Root, big wicket. Just as England had their noses in front too...
