Pakistan have notched their highest-ever total in a Twenty20 and humbled the West Indies again in a thumping 82-run victory to secure a series victory.

Babar Azam smashed an unbeaten 97 off 58 balls and young Hussain Talat scored his maiden T20 half-century with 63 as Pakistan cruised to 3-205 after winning the toss.

The Windies never looked like challenging and were bowled out for 123 in 19.2 overs.

Opening batsman Chadwick Walton scored 40 off 29 balls, and it was all downhill from there. The next best score was 21.

Fast bowler Mohammad Amir picked up 3-22 after the top order was tied down by spinners Shadab Khan (2-23) and Mohamad Nawaz (1-19).
