Video summary

Press to jump

1:23Early dismissals of Fakhar Zaman and Saim Ayub put Pakistan under pressure.
4:00Will Jacks bowls Babar Azam, leaving Pakistan needing a recovery.
5:48Hassan Nawaz and Arafat Minhas counterattack with boundaries and sixes.

18:05Haris Rauf dismisses Ben Duckett to break England's opening partnership.

Will Jacks bowls Babar Azam, and Pakistan's innings needs rescuing. Fakhar Zaman and Saim Ayub have already gone cheaply when Hassan Nawaz and Arafat Minhas turn the batting effort from damage control into a counterattack.

Their recovery gives Sports Central by DRM's full Pakistan-England highlights a substantial story to tell. The clips channel's upload drew about 141,000 views in its first 11 hours, a pace far above its usual start for regular videos. Separate match highlights and a second-innings edit also started unusually quickly, though the full version drew the most views of the three.

Hassan supplies boundaries and sixes on his way to a half-century; Arafat reaches his first ODI fifty. Lower-order contributions from Faheem Ashraf and Shaheen Shah Afridi help Pakistan finish beyond the three-hundred mark, a considerable recovery from those early wickets.

The highlights then shift to Tom Banton and Ben Duckett giving England a solid opening stand before Haris Rauf removes Duckett. In the comments, viewers single out Arafat's commitment and the younger players' fearlessness, while one recalls expecting England to make short work of the chase. Arafat's batting milestone arrives at 12:40 in the full edit.
