That's it from me, Sahil Dutta, and from Andrew McGlashan, hope you enjoyed all the action and will join us tomorrow for the return of Shahid Afridi in the second match starting at 18.00 (14.00 GMT).
For a rather more enlightening account of today's action do check out Andrew Miller's bulletin and to keep in touch of all the weekend's sport, and reaction from Tiger Woods' statement, check out the new ESPN.co.uk site.
Paul Collingwood confirms that 'everyone played very well' and pays tribute to Pietersen's composed innings.
Shoaib Malik says his team were 20-25 runs short and praises England's new ball bowlers for restricting his side. He thinks the pitch lacked a bit of pace but and says he is looking forward to the return of Afridi.
Paul Allott, of all people, is presenting the man-of-the-match award and it goes to... Eoin Morgan, who wins $1000 for his efforts.
