Unbeaten half-century by Dawid Malan and a dominant show from pacers helped England seal a highly-entertaining T20I series after a 67-run win over Pakistan in the seventh and final match in Lahore on Sunday.

England clinched the series 4-3.

In the first innings, Malan's 78 not out off 47 balls powered the visitors to 209/3 in 20 overs.

Chasing 210, Shan Masood (56) did hit a half-century but did not get ample support from other batters, which meant that Pakistan could only score 142/8.

Woakes (3/26) led the English bowling chart for the day.
