Light work for Pakistan

THE WEST INDIES batsmen could not keep up the tempo of the previous day and so Pakistan took all the spoils in the four-match Twenty20 International series.

Set just 125 to win the final T20 yesterday, Sarfraz Ahmed’s men made light work of the task, wrapping up a seven-wicket victory with an over to spare to take the rubber 3-1 at the Queen’s Park Oval.

Soon after Shoaib Malik stroked a Jason Holder full toss to the cover boundary to end proceedings, the Trini Posse DJ struck up the obligatory Rally Round The West Indies.

But there was little for the Windies bowlers or their fans to rally around yesterday. And faced with a straightforward target, Ahmed Shehzad (53, 45 balls), Kamran Akmal (20, 21 balls) and Babar Azam (38, 36 balls) did the business despite the gallant work of seamer Kesrick Williams, who ended a personally encouraging series with two more wickets (3-0-16-2).
