Pakistan v England - 1st T20 International - at Lahore - 1991/2 - Match Report
Brilliant bowling by ageless allrounder Ian Botham set up an easy win for England in the 1st T20 International at Lahore.
Pakistan were given a good start when Rameez Raja and Aamer Sohail added 38 in the first 4 overs but Botham's spell changed the match.
Botham took 5-15 from his 4 overs to derail the Pakistan innings before fighting innings by Imran Khan and Wasim Akram at least took the target close to 140.
England openers Graham Gooch and Alec Stewart added 53 in 5 overs for the 1st wicket and from there England cruised to an easy 9 wicket victory with over 5 overs to spare.
Gooch went on to a hard hitting unbeaten 77* off 44 balls with 12 fours and 3 sixes but Man of the Match was Ian Botham for his fantastic five wicket haul.
