England Beats Pakistan In 1st T20

Source: Cricket Nirvana

England are T20 world champions and they had to play like champions. Keeping behind all the off field issues of spot fixing, Pakistan batted first. Under overcast conditions they merely managed to score 126 for 4. Umar Akmal was the highest scorer for Pakistan with 35 runs from 30 balls. GP Swann claimed 2 wickets giving away just 14 runs from his 4 overs.

Replying to Pakistan's 126, England lost wickets at regular intervals till the time they reached 62 for 5. But a good partnership between Morgan (38 not out) and Yardy (36 not out) took England home with almost 3 overs to spare and 5 wickets remaining.

MH Yardy was declared Man Of The Match.
