England skipper James Williams produced two brilliant run outs to restrict Pakistan to 120 for 8 in 20 overs. England got off to a great start with openers Gordon Laidlaw and 16-year-old Callum Flynn putting on 44 runs in six overs before left-arm spinner Fayyaz Ahmad struck vital bowls to dismiss Flynn (20) and down Matthew Parington for 6. Skipper Williams hit a defiant 20 before being stumped by Danish Ahmad. After Abdullah trapped Laidlaw leg before for 31, Tiwana picked three quick wickets for 14 runs.

Pakistan is led by Saleem Karim, whose right leg withered from polio while his left was damaged in an accident. Karim assembled the team in 2006 and has since organized three national championships, sparking country-wide interest. & England have also shown great interest in disabled cricket and we were happy about how they supported our idea,& said Ansari, who hoped other countries like Australia, India and Sri Lanka would follow suit. & We want to stage a World Cup for disabled cricketers, so for that we need the support of other countries and I hope in the next couple of years more and more countries will come to play this brand of the game,& said Ansari.
