Javeria Khan: She (Bismah Maroof - Pak Captain) got hit on the thumb and has gone for an X-ray. It was more about fielding. The fielders will have to step up. That was the real difference. If you give them anything loose, they'll punish. It all comes down to mental toughness. This is a young bunch, we have to stand up to the occasion. We will make more plans and come back stronger. We weren't able to execute our shots well under pressure.

Heather Knight (England Captain and Player of the Match): Really pleased with the effort. Thought the bowlers were brilliant. The spinners especially were clinical. Happy to get one more win on the board. I am enjoying batting up the order. I think it was a bit slower tonight. I tried to be there till the end. We knew 150-plus was going to be a good score. We have to prepare well for the next game. It's about keeping the form going and momentum is a really big thing in T20s.
🏴 A brilliant performance from @englandcricket as they defeat Pakistan by 42 runs.

Sadia Iqbal walks out to bat as Katherine Brunt returns to bowl the final over. The first ball is wide down leg and the keeper fails to collect as they also steal a run. Iqbal misses with the glance as the 1st ball hits her on the pads. She gets off the mark with a risky single at mid-on. Anwer flicks the 3rd ball to mid-on and good work from Shrubsole keeps them down to just a single. LBW! Brunt gets the ball to nip back in and sneak past the inside edge to trap Iqbal plumb in front of the wickets. England win by 42 runs.
Pakistan 116/10 after 19.4 overs.
WICKET! Iqbal lbw Brunt 1 (3)
Iqbal misses with her attempted flick as the ball hits her plumb in front of the wickets.
Anya Shrubsole returns for the penultimate over. Riaz heaves the 1st ball to long-on and they run hard for 2 runs. She then slices the 2nd ball past short third man for FOUR. The next ball is wide down leg and has to be bowled again. Riaz misses with the sweep as the 3rd ball deflects off the pads for a leg bye. Anwer flicks the 4th ball to midwicket and rotates strike. BOWLED! Riaz’s defiant innings comes to an end as she swings and misses at the 5th ball which crashes into the stumps. Diana Baig walks out next to bat. CAUGHT! Good reaction from Shrubsole as the last ball holds onto the pitch and Baig ends up chipping it right back to the bowler. 9 runs and 2 wickets from the over.
Pakistan 112/9 after 19 overs.
WICKET! Baig c & b Shrubsole 0 (1)
Baig just chips the full delivery right back towards the bowler and Shrubsole moves across to her right while completing her follow-up to take a good catch.
