Pakistan win by 23 runs and wraps the series, leads by 3-0. A hard-fought win for Pakistan, but a special mention for Bangladesh for taking it so close when most people had counted them out. But for a couple of untimely run-outs and some rash shots, they controlled this match from the 30th over of the Pakistan innings onwards, first restricting their total and then chasing hard. But at long last, a contest and both teams will be pleased with that. Bangladesh total is the highest against recognized opposition. Salman Butt for the second time picks up the Man-of-the-Match award, a wonderful knock of 132 runs of 127 balls.
