Pakistan 78/6 chase on the brink

Pakistan limp to 78 for 6 after 12 overs in Colombo, the chase of 176 now demanding 12 an over. India’s new-ball burst left the top order in pieces, then Axar Patel cut down Usman Khan for 44, removing the only innings carrying genuine force. One more wicket has fallen since, per the scoreline, leaving Pakistan needing a miracle finish.
