England are currently taking on Pakistan in the final of the T20 World Cup at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. After electing to field, England bowlers managed to restrict Pakistan to a below-par total of 137\/8 in 20 overs, thanks to Sam Curran<\/a>‘s three-wicket haul. However, England were a bit sloppy with their fielding, and the total could’ve been even lesser\u00a0if they had taken their chances. In the 18th over, England missed a catch and a run-out chance on the same ball. On the fourth delivery of the over, Harry Brook<\/a> dropped a regulation catch at point, before Chris Jordan<\/a> missed a run-out chance after collecting the throw.<\/p>\n The comedy of errors allowed Pakistan to steal three runs, including two overthrows.<\/p>\n For England, Curran returned figures of 3\/12, while Adil Rashid<\/a> and Jordan bagged a couple of wickets each.<\/p>\n Shan Masood<\/a> top-scored for Pakistan with a 28-ball 38, while Babar Azam<\/a> also hit 32 off 28 balls.<\/p>\n England, the 50-over World Cup champions who are looking to add to their sole T20 crown in 2010, named an unchanged side with batsman Dawid Malan<\/a> and pace bowler Mark Wood<\/a> still not fit, meaning Phil Salt and Chris Jordan retain their places.<\/p>\n Pakistan are also searching for a second T20 title after winning the tournament in 2009 and, like England, named an unchanged side.<\/p>\n Promoted<\/span><\/p>\n England: Jos Buttler<\/a> (capt), Alex Hales<\/a>, Phil Salt, Ben Stokes<\/a>, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone<\/a>, Moeen Ali<\/a>, Sam Curran, Chris Jordan, Chris Woakes<\/a>, Adil Rashid<\/p>\n Pakistan: Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam (capt), Mohammad Haris<\/a>, Shan Masood, Iftikhar Ahmed<\/a>, Mohammad Nawaz, Shadab Khan<\/a>, Mohammad Wasim<\/a> Jr, Naseem Shah<\/a>, Haris Rauf<\/a>, Shaheen Afridi<\/a><\/p>\n Topics mentioned in this article<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
