Player Of The Match
  • 19.6

    OUT! Caught. Ben Cutting to Shoaib Malik. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, well timed to deep backward point, by Collingwood. A wicket on the last ball as Collingwood takes a scorcher at deep point after Malik connects well with a big swing. It leaves Pakistan with 174-6 from their 20 overs, a competitive total once again and World XI will have to do well to chase it down, although it's a lovely track to bat on and they will trust their batters in this team of stars.

Perera, finishing on 47 from just 19 deliveries, has hit another huge maximum, this time it's well and truly into the stands and it's his fifth maximum. A brilliant shot and he has won him this game with that innings, absolutely brilliant cricket from him. A very good game, with Pakistan looking stronlgy in control with five overs to go, it shows the difference a big innings like Amla's can make to the result. World XI win by seven wickets and it levels the series at 1-1.
