Hafeez fires 86 in big win over SA

Mohammad Hafeez put a poor Test series behind him to lead Pakistan to a crushing 95-run win in the second and final Twenty20 international against South Africa at SuperSport Park here yesterday

Hafeez hammered 86 and took three wickets for 25 runs, while fast bowler Umar Gul took five for six as SA collapsed to 100 all out in reply to Pakistan’s 195 for seven in what was effectively a series decider after the first match in Durban was washed out.u00a0
