LAHORE, Pakistan, Oct 6 (AFP) - Pakistan outplayed India to win the revived Kirlosker Trophy golf tournament in the eastern city of Lahore on Wednesday.

The Kirlosker Trophy tournament, on the format of the Ryder Cup between the United States and Europe, was last held in 1991 and was revived amidst a thaw in India-Pakistan relations.

"It was a great occasion of golf revival and winning the trophy is the icing on the cake," Pakistan’s non-playing captain Zulfiqar Rana told AFP.

Pakistan made a clean sweep by winning five matches in the foursome play on Monday while the sixth match was tied as the home player Tariq Mahmood won all his matches.

"India have been progressing well in golf at Asian and international level so our win is a big achievement," said Rana.

On day two Pakistan and India won three matches each as India’s Vikrant Chopra and Jaydeep Parwardhan exhibited their skill on the greens.

Pakistan outplayed their rivals by eight wins to four in the individual two-ball play on Wednesday to emerge winners by 16.5 to 7.5 points.

India are due to stage the event in 2005 but have yet to finalise the venue.

Indian player Parwardhan was happy despite his team’s defeat.

"Win or lose doesn’t matter but it was the spirit with which the game was played and back home everyone is happy that Pakistan and India have revived their golfing relations," said Parwardhan.
