Duckett's century leads England to first Pakistan win since 2005
Ben Duckett scored 167 as England beat Sri Lanka by 55 runs, their first ODI win in Pakistan in two decades.
Duckett's career-best 167 off 132 balls propelled England to 386-5, the highest-ever ODI score at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. Liam Dawson then took career-best bowling figures of 4-49 to restrict Sri Lanka to 331.
Pavan Rathnayake scored 118 for Sri Lanka but fell to Dawson in the 45th over. England had lost its first three games in the tri-series and was already out of contention for Saturday's final.
This was England's first ODI victory in Pakistan since 2005.
