Pakistan 'B' began their 2nd innings needing 231 runs to win.
Aamer Malik was soon out for 0, but 20 from Ijaz Ahmed helped steady things.
Qasim Omar was untroubled at the other end, keeping up a steady rate of scoring throughout his innings.
When Ijaz Ahmed fell shortly before stumps on Day 3, Pakistan 'B' elected to send in Nadeem Khan as Night Watchman.
It proved a masterstroke, Nadeem weathering the new ball, and going on to make a patient match turning half century.
Qasim Omar carried on for an excellently paced hundred, and though the spinners grabbed a couple of late wickets, Pakistan 'B' ran out comfortable victors.

The series was Drawn 1-1.
Man of the Series was also Naved Anjum, batting well in addition to taking a series high 17 wickets, by far the best for either side.
