Mohammad Hafeez and Haider Ali set Pakistan up for series-levelling win over England



Mohammad Hafeez's unbeaten 86 and a superb debut fifty from Haider Ali set Pakistan on their way to a thrilling five-run victory over England in the third T20I, ensuring the series ends all square.

SCORECARD | COMMENTARY

The duo put on 100 for the third wicket as Pakistan racked up 190-4 at Emirates Old Trafford and when England slumped to 69-4, the game looked up for Eoin Morgan's side.

A brilliant knock from Moeen Ali (61 from 33 balls) brought England back into contention but he was dismissed in the penultimate over, allowing Pakistan to close out a narrow victory.

The series finishes 1-1 and England will now welcome back some of their star names when they begin their next series against Australia on Friday. ผลบอลสด

England made a strong start after putting Pakistan in as Saqib Mahmood went for just three in the first over before Moeen Ali bowled Fakhar Zaman (1) with his first ball.

That brought Haider to the crease and the teenager was quick to make his mark on the international stage, walloping Moeen into the stands over long on from just his second ball.

Tom Curran castled Babar Azam (21) with a delivery that skidded on but the loss of two early wickets, including the skipper, did not deter Pakistan as Haider and Hafeez showed T20 is a game for all ages, the 19-year-old debutant and 39-year-old veteran proving equally adept at finding - and clearing - the boundary.
