Pakistan have won the Twenty20 series 2-0. New Zealand were boosted by that stand between McCullum and Styris, but the acceleration, in hindsight, came a little too late. Ajmal bowled a superb penultimate over, including the wicket of McCullum, and Styris was left with too many to get with too few to come. The 2-0 win should come as some consolation to the ODI defeat, and the attention now shifts to the Test series in New Zealand. We'll get you the presentation details in just a bit.

Pakistan have won their seventh consecutive Twenty20 game, equalling the record shared by South Africa.

Awards of the "longest six of the match" kind being given away now. Were waiting for the more important bits. Umar Akmal is the Man of the Match for his half-century.

Umar: "My tour wasn't going too well, and my captain asked me to play responsibly. It was important to get the starts, and once Afridi came in to bat and we got a partnership going, the pressure eased off."

Shahid Afridi is the Man of the Series.

McCullum: "The team showed great spirit and overcame the setbacks despite the injuries. We bowled pretty well, I thought 150 was a par score. Ian Butler came back well and it a testament to his character, but unfortunately we couldn't chase it. To take on Pakistan here in the UAE and to come away with a series win in the ODIs was ground-breaking. It's going to be a great Test series in New Zealand. It's fantastic to play in and tour this country."

Afridi collects the trophy from the PCB chairman Ijaz Butt and Sunil Gavaskar, who's part of the presentation panel.

Afridi: "We are very proud of our efforts. I have plenty of confidence in our players, we played like a unit with good performances from everyone. When I saw Umar Akmal play for the first time, he impressed me with with his attitude. Cricket is the biggest form of entertainment in Pakistan and we hope it returns to the country one day. The support here in the UAE was great, and I thank the people for it."

That's all from us folks. Thanks for tuning in and sending us your feedback. Join us for the Test series which starts on November 24. In the meantime, there's a lot of cricket happening elsewhere, with England playing South Africa and India taking on Sri Lanka. Until the next time, it's goodbye from all of us at Cricinfo. See ya!

8 to win off one ball, Gul would be foolish to concede an extra delivery here

9 needed off 2

11 needed off 4

Gul, who has the ability to bowl yorkers with consistency, comes on to bowl. 18 needed

What an over from Ajmal, with seven wickets in hand at the start of the penultimate over of the innings, he just concedes five runs

Mark: "This is classic Black Caps. Let the required run rate build up and leave it all to do at the end. The tactic fails far more than it works. It's anybody's guess whether it will work today"

McCullum managed to fight it out for the bulk of the innings but is out at a crucial time. James Franklin comes in after a stand of 66 which came in fairly quick time.

23 needed off 12, seven wickets in hand. They're relying on Ajmal to choke them down some more here.

Aamer into the attack now

Kyle Mills, the messenger, is out with the drinks. Ajmal's gone for 7 in that over, excellent in this context

New Zealand have to contend with Ajmal now
