'Official' Pakistan in West Indies

[Prince EWS]

Wouldn't mind Sky sports tbh

Indeed; they're so far ahead of Fox in everything they do that it isn't funny. I'll be moving to England soon so I'll have increased Sky exposure but I won't be able to afford it at first, annoyingly. Plenty of time to be spent at the in-laws', methinks.

Said it so many times now, but he really is Pakistan's answer to Mitch.

Said it first tbh.

Now we can safely say the match is evenly poised.If they break the Sarwan-Shiv paternship early,things swing Pakistan's favor.If they don't then WI nose ahead.

What a match.Who cares about meaningless WC semifinals.

Had similar views in 1992 and 1999 as well?

What was that Simmons? Trying to invent an original way of playing the backward defense?

I'm disappointed in Simmons approach to batting this morning....

He was trying to throw away his wicket quite a few times, before he eventaully succeeded.

I would think that the Windies should be aiming to set a target somewhere between 300-360, but I really doubt they're going to get anywhere near there.

I said it when he was playing domestic.

Not in 1992.

1999 is only limited to the meaningless final

Ajmal key bowler for pak now.

 

[Austerlitz]

Good discussion between holding and rameez on drs and batting powerplay.

 

[Austerlitz]

U play on the backfoot on this pitch,that's what happens.

 

[shivfan]

Surely, advantage Pakistan now....

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Ajmal has been great this series.

 

[GotSpin]

Windies need to scrape another 75-100 runs somehow

 

[salman85]

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Ajmal

Lol, well played! Like a Lara late-cut.

Good discussion between holding and rameez on drs and batting powerplay.

Very well expressed by both men. I was surprised that Roach went for it without even consulting his partner.


Ajmal is really scything through now. This is arresting cricket in the morning session.

 

[Austerlitz]

200 to chase will be difficult,250 will be hell.

Odds of Sarwan being dropped for Samuels now?

I mean, it'd no doubt be a farce for Sarwan to sit out while Smith and Nash (and hell even Samuels himself, strong First Class season and all) played, but it's exactly the sort of thing I expect to happen.

It seems that the two of them are long-time friends....

I notice Holding keeps calling him 'Rambo'. How did Rameez get that nickname?

I think Barath is fit and playing again so I imagine he'll come in for Smith. I guess it depends on the outcome of the match tbh.

I'd drop smith for samuels.He's just a free wicket for hafeez now.
