PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Monank Patel

That's the first big upset of this T20 World Cup. It'll do wonders to the confidence of the USA players. After a superb win over Canada, they came out here and played like seasoned professionals to pip Pakistan. Their World Cup campaign is off to a rollicking start. As for Pakistan, a loss like this couldn't have come at a worse time. They'd been very scratchy leading up to the tournament and would've hoped for a win here to set things right before that all important clash against India that's up next. Instead, they're left with even more headaches than they came with. That's it from us for now, this is Anurag Hegde signing off on behalf of Akshay Maanay and Siva. Take care and goodbye.

Monank Patel | USA captain: Winning the toss and the way we bowled in the first 6 overs, we took wickets and kept them quiet. We knew they will take chances after their partnership. We knew we were in the game with 160 to chase, just needed a partnership. Playing in a World Cup, you don’t get a chance to do it every year. We were fully committed every single ball.

Babar Azam | Pakistan captain: First 6 overs while batting we didn’t capitalise. Back to back wickets always put you on the back foot, as a batter you need to step up and build partnerships. We were not up to the mark in the first 6 overs with the ball. Our spinners also did not take wickets in the middle overs so these things cost us. Very hard, all credit to USA, they played better than us in all three departments. Little bit of moisture in the pitch, it was also two-paced. As a professional you need to assess the conditions.

Stats by Shashikant Singh

This is the 3rd defeat for Pakistan in four tied games (super overs & bowl out) and two wins for USA in as many Super Overs.

Pakistan is the third Test-playing nation after Ireland and Bangladesh, whom the USA beat in the T20Is.

This is the first time Pakistan lost to a non-full member side in T20Is.

Monank Patel | Player of the Match: It is a big achievement, beating Pakistan and that too playing (them) for the first time. It was a complete team effort. We won the toss and we made sure we utilised?the conditions well, we did really well to keep them under 160. I am happy with my contribution?and more happy?that we won the game. We spoke about the top three contributing and happy that myself and Gous could do that. The plan was to play proper shots and he (Gous) took the pressure off me. Happy to get the two points. As a batter and player you want to show off in the big games and I am happy that my knock came in a winning cause.

14:49 Local Time, 19:49 GMT, 01:19 IST: A win to savour for the USA! They've pulled off a massive upset here against the ever mercurial Pakistan! That also means that the USA now have 2 wins from 2 games. That will be a very deflating loss for a Pakistan side that came into the tournament looking rather insipid. One can only admire the grit of the USA players, they held out and didn't succumb under pressure like many inexperienced sides tend to do in such situations. They fought right till the end, managed to hang in there even when the chips were down. It went into the super-over and they were the ones who kept their calm much better in that super-over. Pakistan have only themselves to blame. They were extremely sloppy and clumsy with the ball, they were scattered and uncoordinated in the field and they ended up conceding 19. It was a bit too much to ask of the batters as USA claimed a famous win.

Ball 6: Netravalkar to Shadab, 1 run, that's it, USA have done it! An upset for the ages here as Pakistan slump to defeat in this super over! Nails the wide yorker again, all Shadab can do is carve it out towards deep cover, my word, what a game! 13/1, USA win by 5 runs

Ball 5: Netravalkar to Shadab, 2 runs, Pakistan now need a maximum! Very full on middle, Shadab skews it back over the bowler, no timing, and it goes down to long-on, they get a couple leaving them with 7 to get off the last one! USA just need a legal delivery to ensure they won't lose it now 12/1, 7 needed from 1 ball

Ball 4: Netravalkar to Shadab, leg-byes, FOUR, this is streaky! That wasn't a bad delivery at all, perfect yorker just outside off, Shadab shuffled right across his stumps looking to lap that fine and missed, it his his pad and went past the right of the keeper 10/1, need 9 from 2 balls

Ball 4: Netravalkar to Shadab, wide, goes for the wide yorker but he can't keep it inside the tramline, Pakistan will be helped by these, 6/1, need 13 from 3 balls

Shadab Khan, right handed bat, comes to the crease

Ball 3: Netravalkar to Iftikhar, OUT! Caught by Milind Kumar! This is a brilliant catch by Milind Kumar! Low full-toss on off-stump, Iftikhar swung through the line looking to go down the ground but it came right off the toe end, Kumar ran in from long-off, leapt forward and managed to keep his fingers under it to pouch it. The third-umpire has a look at it from multiple angles and deems that it's a fair catch! Iftikhar has to go! Massive pressure on Pakistan now! They need 14 more from 3 and they cannot lose a wicket! 5/1 , need 14 from 3 balls

Ball 3: Netravalkar to Iftikhar, wide, this is most certainly a wide, very full and wide outside off, he was happy to let that go 5/0, need 14 from 4 balls

Ball 2: Netravalkar to Iftikhar, FOUR, he's got this away! Length delivery on middle, Iftikhar hung back and heaved it away into the gap at deep mid-wicket, split the men in two! 4/0, need 15 from 4 balls

Ball 1: Netravalkar to Iftikhar, no run, Iftikhar is livid that this hasn't been called wide, very full and wide outside off, Iftikhar shuffled across looking to slap it away and missed, the guide moves with the batter 0/0, need 19 from 5 balls

That is an excellent outing for USA. Pakistan will have themselves to blame. Amir struggled against the left-handed Harmeet and bowled a few wides. Then the fielding was sloppy as they conceded few easy runs. Pakistan need 19 runs to win. The super over also has twisted and turned just like the actual game. Now the pressure is on Pakistan. Netravalkar was warming up before Pakistan bowled and now he's practising on the side pitches. Will he be able to keep his cool? Who are going to be Pakistan's batters? The umpires and USA players are out in the middle, they are waiting for the Pakistan batters. Shadab and Azam are ruled out as they are seated in the dugout. You have 5 minutes between the two overs. Pakistan batters are still not on the field. Iftikhar is striding out now and Fakhar will be his partner. They too have gone for a right-left combination. Iftikhar will take strike. Monank making a few last minute field changes. Netravalkar is ready and off we go..
