Afridi facing tough task in boosting Pakistan
Pakistan were dismissed for their lowest Twenty20 score in 40 matches at this level at Sophia Gardens here on Tuesday as England won by six wickets to wrap up a 2-0 series win with a mammoth 36 balls to spare.
World Twenty20 champions England, who completed a 3-1 Test series win over Pakistan last month, will now look for fresh success when the teams meet in the first of five one-day internationals at Chester-le-Street, northeast England, on Friday.
"We were very bad, inexperienced and immature from my side and from all the batsmen," Afridi told reporters. "I think we played very bad cricket.
"It will be a big challenge to compete in the one-dayers, but we have some time," he added.
"Me, my coach (Waqar Younis) and the team, we will sit together and talk."
Pakistan's tour has been overshadowed by a 'spot-fixing' scandal that has seen Test captain Salman Butt and bowlers Mohammad Aamer and Mohammad Asif all suspended by the International Cricket Council after allegedly conspiring to deliberately bowl no-balls during last month's fourth Test at Lord's.
But Afridi said off-field problems could not account for Pakistan's form.
"At this stage I know our morale is very down. It is down day by day, and game by game. But one victory and it will be very high.
"I just want one victory. I'm not letting my team down like this, not in the one-dayers," Afridi added.
But he conceded the loss of the suspended trio had hit Pakistan hard.
"I made some plans as a captain, I knew Salman Butt was my opener and key player, and Asif and Amir.
"Everything has changed as a captain for me, but inshallah (God willing) I will bring my team up."
Victory, built on seamer Tim Bresnan's man-of-the-match winning return of three wickets for 10 runs in 3.4 overs, saw England to a seventh straight Twenty20 success - equalling the record for consecutve international victories in this format shared by South Africa and Pakistan.
"In this form of the game it can be tough to win consecutively," said England Twenty20 captain Paul Collingwood.
"It just takes one performance from the opposition to take it away from you.
"To have that 'World Cup', you can have added pressure on you as well.
"But the way we've played over the last two games, the boys are enjoying that added pressure," added Collingwood, who led England to a five-wicket win over Pakistan here on Sunday.
"They tried to come hard at us today (Tuesday) -- you could sense that was their approach -- but we kept taking wickets and really applying the pressure."

Akmal, Butt take Pakistan to Win
Pakistan started their title defense in imposing fashion against Bangladesh in St Lucia, as Salman Butt and Kamran Akmal put the platform for the highest total score of the tournament so far. Butt, a surprise selection at 142 with Akmal and Shahid Afridi made it’s decision to bat was not lost. Bangladesh, poor for much of the innings, does well to chase 173.
Akmal and Butt got the balance just right on an intelligent stand. Both attacked regularly, but with thought. Akmal’s stance was predictable, almost immediately try to set the agenda. A bold statement was made by left-arm spin – Bangladesh’s most potent weapon – once, twice if he wiped out Abdur Razzak into the second one. He was the one who took risks, almost pay for it when a chance from a miscued pull fluffed by Mohammad Ashraful. They had to pay for it as Akmal did what he does best. Out came the cuts, the scything cover drives, pulls and the occasional stunning blow over extra cover. All singles and doubles, while a large area flooded, so Akmal as comfortable as he makes 73 in this format.
Butt, but was pleasantly surprised. He appeared ill-suited to the format, unable to work and gaps are not blessed with the power game that poorer batsmen get runs. But he has a good ODI record and it was the intention from the start, when he lofted his first ball over extra cover.
Since then, periodically, he would dance down, go away, go find loopholes or antenna. When Akmal snorted and puffed and threw herself into success,
Butt went about as smooth as you can in reaching fifty off 29 balls. There was no violence, just clear intention and belief in his regular strokes.
His improved leg-side game was shown, and, in three successive overs after the 10th, he hit Shakib al Hasan, slog-swept Razzak for a maximum 
and then hit debutante Suhrawadi Shuvo well in another. A pair of improvised legside flicks he hinted new tricks and his second fifty T20I to learn, was an unexpected bonus. All types of monuments came in that period, Pakistan hundreds, fifties and Akmal’s without doing anything too stupid, a mammoth total threatened.
Bangladesh had started badly, nervous in the field and with the ball at the start, unable to string together a whole to any acquisition of good balls. It was not until the 16th over, in fact, when they finally Akmal
claimed that one more cast, without giving at least one border. She recovered, not to allow more limits in the final overs, but the damage was done.
