Sufiyan Muqeem takes 5 3 as Pakistan thrash Zimbabwe by ten wickers in T20 series

Pakistan spinner Sufiyan Muqeem scored a career-best 5-3 to help his side defeat Zimbabwe by ten wickets in the second of the three-match T20 series.

Zimbabwe opted to bat and, after reaching 37 in 27 balls, were bowled out for 57 in 12.4 overs, their lowest score in the format.

Muqeem caused the most damage as the left-arm spinner took five wickets in just 2.4 overs.

Pakistan achieved their target with 87 balls remaining.

Saim Ayub scored 36 from 18 balls and fellow opener Omair Yousuf scored 22 from 15 balls, marking Pakistan's highest ever win in terms of number of deliveries remaining.

Pakistan will be aiming for a 3-0 series win when the two teams face each other again on Thursday.
