Alastair Cook praises his England team following the ODI victory over Pakistan on Wednesday.

England captain Alastair Cook has praised his side for their performance in the second one-day international victory over Pakistan.

Cook scored a century as England recorded a 20-run win over Pakistan, and the Essex batsman signalled his happiness with the win.

"It was a really good team performance and we'll enjoy it tonight," Cook said.

The left hander also reserved special praise for Steven Finn after the bowler returned figures of 4-34.

"I thought Steven Finn was outstanding. I think his first five overs only went for seven runs. We got ahead of the game. I thought we also fielded outstandingly well," he added.

Cook became the first England player to record back-to-back centuries in one-day matches.
