Jonny Bairstow hits 60 from 46 balls as England set Pakistan 151 to win the Twenty20 series against England.

An unbeaten half century from Jonny Bairstow helped England reach 150 in the final Twenty20 against Pakistan this evening.

England won the toss and elected to bat but lost two wickets early on before Bairstow steadied the ship with a 30-run partnership with Craig Kieswetter.

Opener Kieswetter then smacked a Shahid Afridi ball striaght down the throat of long-off before Samit Patel came in and, with the help of Bairstow, built on the score.

At the end of the 20 overs England reached 150-7 with Bairstow at the crease on 60 having hit seven boundaries, two of which were sixes.

Umar Gul was the pick of the Pakistan bowlers with figures of 2-31.
