23:00 (IST)
Four and Four! Haider Ali's decided this is his show today in Old Trafford. He looks to pull hard but gets a streaky edge through to fine leg first before connecting with the pull and sends it past the short fine for a second consecutive boundary. Fantastic batting from the youngster on his debut. Pakistan 47/2 after 6 overs with the very experienced Hafeez and debutant Haider Ali in the middle.

21:25 (IST)
We're about half an hour away from the toss and the forecast today evening is clear thankfully. Both sides will no doubt bring their A game to the table as they round off the tour. England take on Australia after this before all eyes turn to UAE for the IPL.

21:55 (IST)
Almost time for the toss. Babar Azam and Eoin Morgan to walk out in sunny Manchester.
Pakistan head coach and chief selector Misbah-ul-Haq should not have reacted the way he did during England's chase in the first T20I between the two sides, according to former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq. "During the fifth over of England innings, when Pakistan were bowling their Powerplay overs and had conceded 40-45 runs, the camera kept showing Misbah and he had his hands on his head, which suggested that something really bad happened," Inzamam said in his Youtube channel. "There were still 155-160 runs to go, the match could have gone in anyone's favour, but you are sending a message that suggests that you have done something wrong. You can have a proper discussion after the game, but if you respond like this during the match, then this will have a bad effect on the team," he further added.

He's under pressure to perform and boy is he pulling out the stops. Pakistan are 130/2.
Preview: England are in with a golden chance to win their sixth T20I series on the trot, having a lead of 1-0 over Pakistan in the ongoing series. On Tuesday, the two teams will meet again, and hosts England will look to extend their winning run on the tour, where they haven't lost a single match. Putting things into perspective further, it has been over two years since England lost a T20I series and they appear primed to add to their winning streak. With the first match having been washed out, Pakistan, the current No.4-ranked side in the ICC T20I Team Rankings, will look to find ways to counter the potent England batting order in a bid to level the series. After their bowling fell short in the second T20I with Mohammad Amir getting injured, they might want to go in with veteran Wahab Riaz. Also, if they decide to give Shaheen Shah Afridi some rest, who has played all the matches on this tour, the 20-year-old Mohammad Hasnain might also be an option to consider. On the other hand, England would like to make changes in their weak-looking bowling attack and go in with David Willey, who was in senstional form against the Irish. While the first T20I had to be abandoned mid-way due to rain, the second was played under mostly clear skies and the forecast looks promising for the series finale as well. Another run-fest might be on the cards in Manchester.
Eoin Morgan (England captain): "The last two years in international cricket are my best numbers to date. That's great because if I can combine a little of that [form] with my experience, I think that will go a long way to winning games."
Babar Azam (Pakistan captain): "We stuck to our plans while batting, but we couldn't bowl well. Credit to Malan and Morgan for the way they played."
