DUBAI, FEB 22 (REUTERS): Kevin Pietersen's second successive century led England to a four-wicket victory over Pakistan and a series whitewash after the fourth and final one-day international in Dubai on Tuesday. Pietersen smashed 130 off 153 balls as England reached their target of 238 with four balls to spare. Pakistan's 237 was built around half-centuries by Azhar Ali (58) and Asad Shafiq (65) but they lost momentum after a solid start and England overcame the early loss of in-form captain Alastair Cook to take partial revenge for their 3-0 defeat in the test series.
