The fulcrum of Pakistan’s batting unit, Babar Azam was caught at his wits’ end as he charged at Adil Rashid’s wrong’ un, only to be beaten and stumped for a pedestrian score of 11. He intended to loft the leg-spinner over long-on, but the ever-so-slight inward turn of the ball foxed him into submission.
Rashid’s T20I career-best figures of 4-35 restricted Pakistan to 154/6 before England chased down the target with two balls to spare. Eoin Morgan and his troops prevailed in the three-match T20I series with a scoreline of 2-1.
