Umar Akmal & Afridi steer Pakistan to jittery win: ICC Champions Trophy (Jborg)

Pakistan made hard work in beating the West Indies by 5 wickets after bowling them out for just 133. Leftarm seamer Mohammad Aamer claimed 3-24 as the understrength Windies were left tottering at 4-77 in the 15th over.

Only a maiden oneday fifty from Nikita Miller who hit six fours and a six in 51 stood in the way of disaster for the Windies. In reply paceman Gavin Tonge took 4-16 to rattle Pakistan before Umar Akmal 41 not out and stand in skipper Shahid Afridi 17 not out took them to victory with a 58 run partnership.
