Pakistan have eased to a 1-0 lead in the one-day international series against England with a six-wicket victory in Abu Dhabi.

After a disappointing defeat to Pakistan in the Test series, Eoin Morgan and his ODI side hoped to bring back some positivity, but their hopes were dashed soon after going into bat.

Jason Roy faced just two balls before he was bowled out for a duck by Mohammad Irfan, leaving England one wicket down inside the opening over of the day.

Roy's teammates did not do much better as Joe Root was also sent packing for a duck, while Morgan and James Taylor got the best figures of the innings with 76 and 60 respectively.

Pakistan dominated the field as Irfan took three wickets, Anwar Ali and Shoaib Malik claimed two, while Yasir Shah nabbed one to bowl England all out for 216 in 50 overs.

England's bowlers had a big job on their hands when they took to the field, but it was a positive start as Reece Topley trapped Ali (8) for lbw in the second over.

The 21-year-old made the most of his momentum by dismissing Bilal Asif for two runs just one over later thanks to a review, and he continued his dominance by ending Younis Khan's ODI career by claiming his third wicket of the innings.

Khan was competing in his final limited-overs game, and it was not a memorable innings for the Pakistan cricketer as he could only muster nine runs before being caught out by Adil Rashid.

Moeen Ali got in on the act by sending Malik (26) back to the pavilion, but Pakistan continued to tick towards the 217-run target thanks to Mohammad Hafeez passing 50.

England were placed on the back foot again as Hafeez managed to take control of the match and eventually steered Pakistan to their total with an unbeaten 102, which included one six and 10 boundaries, off 130 balls.

Babar Azam also contributed with 62 runs as Pakistan claimed victory with 38 balls remaining.

There are three ODIs left in the series.
