India win cricket

India ensured their one-day series against Pakistan would go to a deciding fifth match after claiming a superb five-wicket win in Lahore yesterday.

Chasing Pakistan's challenging total of 293 for nine, India passed their target with five overs in hand thanks largely to a brilliant century stand between Rahul Dravid and Mohammad Kaif.

The duo put on an unbeaten 132 a record sixth-wicket stand for India to lead their country away from a potentially perilous 162 for five to victory.
