Tickner to Iftikhar Ahmed, SIX, Iftikhar finishes it in style and Pakistan lift the tri-series trophy! He had enough of singles, shuffled across early and picked this up beautifully. All the way over deep square leg. The boundary fielder was interested for a moment but it was just over him as he leapt to his right
