Pakistan give India a resound bashing to take series 4-2

Great allround display by the Pakistan side in the sixth and final one-dayer today at Feroz Shah Kotla Ground, New Delhi earned them a fabulous series win by 4-2 scoreline. It provided only the first instance in the annals of Limited-overs cricket when a side won a six-match series after losing the first two games. In a five–match series there have also been two such instances - South Africa (3-2) against Pakistan in Pakistan in October 2003 and Bangladesh against Zimbabwe in Bangladesh (3-2) earlier this year.

Pakistan's Yousuf Youhana famous for his fascination with run-outs became a victim of a dubious decision by third-umpire, K Hariharan much to the delight of his country and his own. Now perhaps Pakistan will ask ICC for neutral third umpires! Later, Hariharan was joined by his on-field mate AV Jayaprakash who perhaps trusted his ears more than his eyes when he gave a miles a away missed delivery by Inzamam as a caught behind. Ironically, those two biased decisions were not much savoured by India. Youhana brilliantly executed two stunning run-outs of Rahul Dravid and Yuvraj Singh as Pakistan bowlers joined by spirited fielders ran through the Indian batting line-up giving them a resound bashing by 159 runs.Click to see the series averages
