RAWALPINDI, Nov 8: Pakistan Army wrapped up their limited-overs series against the touring British Army outfit with a 41-run win in the second Twenty20 game at the Army Cricket Stadium here on Thursday.

Sanaullah also played brilliantly to strike eight fours and one six in his belligerent 27-ball knock of 60, while Shahid Khan struck a breezy 36 from 23 balls with the aid of four hits to the fence.

For the visitors, Boynton, Kyungungu and Onyuro grabbed a wicket each.

British Army’s batting once gain failed to chase down a tough target. They lost wickets at regular intervals before being rolled over for 138 in 19.4 overs. The only batsman to make a notable contribution was Sherwin Govender who hammered 55 from the 42 deliveries he faced, while hitting four fours and three sixes.

Among other batsmen, Daniel Webb blasted a quick 23 off just eight balls with three boundaries and a towering six.

The pick of the Pakistan Army bowlers was Nasar Iqbal who grabbed four wickets for 16 runs in four overs.
