England lost the first T20 match of their series against Pakistan in a thrilling encounter that saw Liam Livingstone score the home side's fastest-ever century in the format.
Pakistan scored their highest ever total in T20 cricket, smashing 232 for the loss of six wickets. Captain Babar Azam led his team by example, scoring 85 off 49 balls, though he was ably supported by Mohammad Rizwan.
Down the order, Fakhar Zaman and Mohammaed Hafeez put on a thundering show to set England a mammoth 233 to win.
