Pakistan vs Netherlands T20 World Cup, Live Updates: Pakistan’s chase of 148 has faced a blow, with the Salman Ali Agha-led team slipping to five wickets down after what initially looked like a promising start. Despite building early momentum, the batting unit has once again struggled with consistency, losing wickets at regular intervals. The latest setback came with the dismissal of Babar Azam, who fell for a scratchy 15 off 18 balls, extending his lean run of form and putting Pakistan under further pressure. At the crease now are Shadab Khan and Mohammad Nawaz, who are attempting to steady the chase for a faltering Pakistan side. Earlier in the day, Pakistan’s spinners had put the team in a commanding position by bowling out the Netherlands for 147 in the Group A opener in Colombo. (Live Scorecard)
