Pakistan, seeking consolation from a trip that will be best remembered for corruption allegations and off-field issues, was bowled out under the lights for 135 in 37 overs, chasing 257 for victory, to lose an ill-tempered series 3-2. Pakistan also lost the test series 3-1 and the Twenty20 series 2-0.
Pakistan crashed from 63 without loss to 104-6 and failed to recover thereafter, as offspinner Graeme Swann led the way with figures of 3-26 in nine overs.
Morgan earlier scored an unbeaten 107 off 101 deliveries, and helped take 19 runs from the 50th over, for his second unbeaten hundred on the ground this year after his match-winning 103 against Australia. Fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar impressed with 3-40 from his 10 overs.
