At that point, with 111 required from the final 31 balls, the crowds emptied into the streets of Lahore as the rest of the match played out in front of a half-empty stadium. This wasn't the first time in these weeks that crowds have yearned for Asif to come to the crease while expressing glee at Khushdil's departure. Duckett was eventually done in by a brilliant piece of work from Rizwan behind the stumps, who gathered the ball off an under-edge and brought it to the stumps in one motion. He finishes as the leading wicket-taker with eight at 23.62, which serves as a reminder that even a world-class operator relies on support from those around him. But the overriding thought at the end of these seven matches was how long and overdue it has been for an England side to tour Pakistan. He should have boasted the wickets of Brook and Malan - both dropped by his captain - and in turn Pakistan lost the thread of this match. Rauf then had Malan missed off his bowling (on 64) by Mohammad Wasim in the deep, whose misery was taken to new depths when he stepped up to close out the innings. England, by contrast, opted against using Mark Wood, a key point of difference in their attack, with a view to preserving him for the T20 World Cup in Australia, while captain Jos Buttler sat out once more. [Dawid Malan](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/dawid-malan-236489)registered his first half-century of the tour, with an unbeaten 78 that began in the fifth over. Woakes would go on to finish with three for 26, including [Shan Masood](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/shan-masood-233901), whose 56 was Pakistan's only score of note. A smart bowling performance confirmed a 4-3 series to England thanks to victory by 67 runs, Pakistan's fourth-biggest such margin in the format. For a series that has showcased the best of international T20 cricket, it was a shame the finale carried so little jeopardy.

The England openers got off to a brisk start, but it was Dawid Malan who played the most impactful knock of the match. Moeen Ali leads the team as they walk to greet the opposition players They started off the 7-match series with a win, and have done extremely well to sign off in style. In reply, the Pakistani openers weren't able to replicate what the England openers managed to do. A good comeback by England to finish off the series with back-to-back wins. We have been in the hotel for quite a bit, but we are ready to get to Australia now. We need to improve in the shortest format. Player of the Match: We put on a big score, it was a fantastic effort from us. All the lads are looking forward to getting out there, and get going against Australia in the three-match series, and obviously then to the World Cup. Credit to the boys for the way they played. Just want to say thank you to everyone, and the PCB for looking after us. Moeen Ali collects the trophy from Ramiz Raja and hands it to his team-mates as England pose with the 'Winners' banner.

Pakistan vs England seventh T20: as it happened · Player of the match, Dawid Malan speaks · That winning feeling · Over 20: Pakistan 142/8 (Hasnain 4, Rauf 1).

Hales, though, was picked for his experience and record in the Big Bash and he has done enough in this series with one to play to keep his place when England arrive in Australia next week. There are a few big-name England absentees in Pakistan but their Twenty20 World Cup team has taken shape, which apart from the politics and symbolism, was the point of the tour. He is averaging 50 from six games with a strike rate of 159 and looked very happy on the pitches and facing spin. The pitch is the one used in the first game which was slow and low but that was just after heavy rain on Tuesday. What a reaction from Rizwan, as the ball is bounced up and he sticks out a right mitt. Alex Hales is denied his boundary due to a brilliant stop from Rauf at long-off but then he does find the fence from the next three deliveries. It's four more last week as well for England as Hasnain is having a nightmare at deep third and allowing the ball to slip past him. Three absolute dollies put down and for the first time in the series the crowd were giving their side a bit of stick. Then, the wicket of Asif is taken with a simple catch from Topley and a brilliant short ball delivered by Woakes. It's four singles, a dot ball and a wide is all that comes from the bowling of Reece Topley. Shan Masood was picked on the back of a good Blast season for Derbyshire but there is a big difference belting county cricket and England bowlers around instead. The match was done by the end of the powerplay, with Pakistan 33 for three and sinking.

I look to hit straight first but if there is a gap then I will try and manipulate the field.” England will now travel to Australia to prepare for the T20 World Cup, with three T20s against hosts Australia on October 9, 12 and 14. “I have just tried to hit the ball straight and play the ball on its merit. “We’re really happy to win this series and we go to Australia in a really good position, but I don’t think we’re favourites for the World Cup. We had two must-win games and the way we have come back to win so comfortably was amazing to see,” added Moeen. But England made a great comeback from behind to win the last two matches and eventually, the series.

He was chomping at the bit for a game at the back-end here, but the risk-reward wasn't quite there. He's just got to get some miles in the legs and he should be right to start when we get out there. "I couldn't have asked for much more to be honest, I think Moeen Ali, in particular, has captained extremely well. But I still think Australia and India are the two favourites."
