LEEDS, England: England pacer Chris Woakes claimed five wickets while batsmen Joe Root and Eoin Morgan hit half-centuries to help the hosts defeat Pakistan by 54 runs in the fifth and final one-day international at Headingley on Sunday.
"The series win is as good as we could have hoped for," Morgan said in the post-match presentation ceremony. Pakistan found themselves in trouble at 6-3 after Woakes' blistering opening spell, but Babar Azam and Sarfaraz Ahmed stitched together a superb 146-run stand for the fourth wicket to give them a fighting chance in the contest.However, another late collapse after both batsmen were run out meant that Pakistan ended the series empty handed in their final preparation ahead of the World Cup in England and Wales beginning on May 30.
"My message to Pakistan fans is 'support us', whenever Pakistan come to England they support the team."
