    Akmal was named the man of the series for his brilliant efforts with the bat and the ball.

    Earlier in the first semi-final of the day, England had beaten Srilanka by seven runs.

    Pakistan, who finished runners-up to Australia in the Super Sixes last year, were placed in Group C with South Africa, India and Hong Kong.
