England had no answer for the quality of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan as Pakistan levelled the series with a record-breaking ten-wicket win in Karachi.
The visitors were delighted with the way they batted after making 199-5, with stand-in captain Moeen Ali, Ben Duckett and Harry Brook all starring. However, Babar and Rizwan proceeded to put England's bowlers to the sword, sharing the highest ever partnership in a T20I chase and inflicting a first ever ten-wicket defeat on England.
After winning the toss and opting to bat first, openers Phil Salt and Alex Hales got England off to a good start, striking 42 runs from the first five overs, before Shahnawaz Dahani picked up two massive wickets.
