ISLAMABAD, Sep 23 (APP): President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf have congratulated the Pakistan cricket team on their glorious victory. Batting first, Nasir Jamshed hit a maiden half-century to guide Pakistan to a challenging 177 for 6. The 22-year-old left-hander made a 35-ball 56 and added 76 for the second wicket with skipper Muhammad Hafeez after Pakistan opted to bat, PTV reported. Pakistan raced to 47 by the sixth over with Imran Nazir hitting five boundaries during his rapidfire 16-ball 25 before he gave a return catch to Tim Southee.
