A consolation win for England in their final game in the series. A positive end to a disappointing couple of weeks in Pakistan.

Have LOVED the Tri-Series so far, it's a brilliant format. Imagine a series involving England, India and Pakistan hosted at, say, Edgbaston, The Oval and Headingley? Every game would be a sell-out, every game would be huge. #bbccricket
