Pakistan Sink India as Afridi Spins Magic

via www.timesonline.co.uk

MOHAMMAD SAMI and Pakistan’s spin trident bowled with passion, verve and considerable skill to script a famous victory here, thus earning a series draw as India collapsed in shambolic fashion after lunch. From the relative comfort and safety of 108 for one, India were bowled out for 214. Victory was no less than Pakistan deserved after India inexplicably went into a shell in the wake of Virender Sehwag’s dismissal.
