Geo436.com blog: Morgan ton helps England reach 256-6 against Pakistan

Geo 436 SOUTHAMPTON: Eoin Morgan”s latest Rose Bowl century saw England recover to 256 for six against Pakistan in the decisive fifth and final one-day international here on Wednesday. Morgan made 107 not out after England had slumped to 47 for three following home captain Andrew Strauss”s decision to bat first in the supposedly less testing conditions afforded by daylight rather than floodlights. Fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar, who finished with three wickets for 40 runs, took two for 17 in an impressive six-over opening spell as Pakistan, who had been 2-0 down, attempted to take the series 3-2.
