Pakistan get a bonus point and a win by 79 runs
A good win for Pakistan of 79 runs and a bonus point too
The Pakistan pace attack was a bit of a handful for them chasing

the 200 on this bowler friendly wicket
Presentations on, most boundary award to Kumar Sangakkara
he hit 4 fours and the best batsman award to Mohammad Hafeez
The Man of the Match to Hafeez too
Hafeez says wicket was juicy early on and says he decided to hang

on ans a total of 200 and 210 would be good
Also gets a MoM trophy
Atapattu wishes the day could have been better and is disappointed
with the batting
Happy with the fielding and bowling and more effort from the
batsmen
Rashid is not around and Youhana is called in, says was a good day
and we played wll in patches and Hafeez did well, is happy with
Shoaib Akhtar's come back, is very happy with Rashid
Thats all for today, we will have New Zealand v Pakistan tomorrow
starting at 04:00GMT, please join us then as we say good evening
