India will once again take field tomorrow, when they take on Sri Lanka in Colombo. We will be back with LIVE coverage of that match, but until then, it's goodbye and good night!

GAME OVER! Kuldeep Yadav cleans up Faheem Ashraf, who departs for just four runs. Pakistan are eight down, but they are more or les all out, as Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf won;t be coming out to bat after sustaining niggles while fielding.

OUT! A huge appeal for LBW against Agha Salman from bowler Kuldeep Yadav and his teammates, and he is given out by the umpire. Pakistan go for the review, but it's clipping leg stump according to ball-tracking. Pakistan, though, don't lose the review as it is Umpire's Call on the wickets. Agha Salman lbw b Kuldeep Yadav 23

After 22 overs,Pakistan 84/4 ( Agha Salman 15 , Iftikhar Ahmed 4)
The physio is out there to look into Salman's injury. He's patched up and after that, he receives a concussion test. Seems like Salman has a swelling below his eye. Moments later, he wears a new hemet and is good to continue for now. Kuldeep bowls the 21st over and just one run comes off it.
22:09 (IST)
After 21 overs,Pakistan 83/4 ( Agha Salman 15 , Iftikhar Ahmed 3)
Right. Change of bowling again as Ravindra Jadeja is introduced to the attack. Spinners from both ends now, it will be interesting to see how Salman and Iftikhar approach this. Pakistan's required run rate, meanwhile, is over nine now, which means the pressure is building up already. Salman, meanwhile, takes a blow to his face. He was not wearing a helmet, just his cap. There's a pause in the game now. Seems like Salman has sustained a cut below his eyes.
