Twitter Reactions: England beat Pakistan with ease; clinch the ODI series 3-1

England, with the help of stellar performances from their batsmen, posted a mammoth 355/5 at the end of the stipulated 50 overs. Jason Roy struck his maiden century (102 from 117 balls) and Jos Buttler (116 from 68 balls) struck the fastest century in England’s ODI history. He reached his century in just 46 balls. Apart from the duo, Joe Root (71 from 71 balls) also played an important role.

In reply, Pakistan had a decent start and maintained the required run rate, sometimes even higher. However, the Pakistani batsmen kept throwing their wickets from time to them which cost them the match. Shoaib Malik (52 from 34 runs) and Babar Azam’s run-a-ball 51 kept the hopes alive for Pakistan, but other batsmen squandered the chance to win.

Pakistan was already 2-1 down before coming into play this match. They had an opportunity to equal the series and save their pride. However, this match turned out to be a disaster for them. They underperformed in all departments and England were the superior team at the end of the day.

I've never seen anything like that from @josbuttler today. Was a privilege to see it live #PAKvENG

@MrGhzali coach always get the blame, but what about players, none of the ODI player has ability to stay at the crease. #PAKvENG

Full marks to our approach in chasing down 355 we just didn't have enough wickets in the end… Better luck next time boys #PAKvENG

I think the aggressive game we played today should be a standard. Everyone contributed. Better luck next time.#PakvsEng #PAKvENG

If only we had played sensible cricket. it seems like there was no plan at all. #PAKvENG

Pakistan could have probably avoided a couple of wickets. That run-out was really, really soft. #PAKvENG

Time for "Real Cricket is Test Cricket & we have won the Test series, who cares about ODI's" ???#Face_Saving_Tweet #PAKvENG

That awkward moment when current run rate is higher than required run rate and still there is no hope.#PAKvENG

— Asim Ikram (@asimikraam) November 20, 2015

What is frustrating is that out of eight wickets to go down, no one got a good ball. All threw it away.Only Azhar Ali unlucky #PAKvENG

So #England lead the series by 3-1 #PAKvENG ……….

To chase down 300+, you need partnerships and big socres from your top order but unfortunetly no one did this. #PAKvENG

Last time Pakistan won an ODI series in UAE against any other team except Sri Lanka was almost 6 years ago. #PAKvENG #Cricket

You have been one of the best bowlers of Pak Cricket Waqar. But you have been the worst coach to date. Kindly leave the post.#PAKvENG

I think big achievement is maintaining 7+ run rate through out the innings #PAKvENG

Its better to give death overs to spinners rather than handing it over to Anwar Ali. #PakvEng
