SCORECARD | SCHEDULE | POINTS TABLE
The carnival environment, which gave you a feel of being in Lahore or Karachi, didn't remaining lengthy even though. At around 2 pm, when Nicholas Pooran smashed a monstrous hit off Wahab Riaz deep into the stands behind midwicket to complete the rout, hundreds of Pakistani supporters had already trooped out to catch the educate to London.
On an extraordinary fast bowling paradise, Pakistan's batsmen have been outgunned via the rampaging West Indies pacers. A mixture of terrible batting and some just right out of date fast bowling via the West Indians, saw Sarfaraz Ahmed & Co shot out for 105 in 21.four overs. The complete innings lasted little more than a T20 innings.
Kicking off his ODI 'farewell celebration' in style, Chris Gayle (50) then ensured that the Caribbean charmers raced to the target in just 13.four overs for a seven-wicket romp that gave a large spice up their web run price too. The victory, even though, got here at a price for the West Indies.
Fielding at 3rd man, Andre Russell, bothered via a foul knee for the reason that IPL, collapsed at the boundary and needed to be helped off the sector. Worse, Gayle used to be hobbling around, suffering to even run singles because of a back condition which looked in reality bad. Both the superstars have a week to get well, sooner than West Indies play their subsequent sport - towards the Aussies here subsequent Thursday.
The Pakistani lovers had one thing to cheer as Mohammad Amir, returning to the group after a bout of chickenpox, bagged all the three wickets to fall for them. Having suffered their sixth defeat in a row, Pakistan have quite a few soul-searching to do sooner than they take on England here subsequent Monday.
Displaying horrendous technique towards the short ball directed at their bodies after being put in via West Indies captain Jason Holder, batsman after batsman succumbed to the tempo and jump generated via Oshane Thomas (four for 27), Jason Holder (3 for 42) and Andre Russell (two for four). None of the Pakistani batsmen showed the technique or the need to stick on the wicket and struggle it out.
Unleashing a five-man tempo attack, which reminded one among their easy, however devastating technique all the way through their golden technology in the 1970s and 80s, West Indies got here into the game with a transparent gameplan - intimidate batsmen with consistent 'chin song'. Perhaps, it used to be inspired via the success Jofra Archer were given whilst bowling bouncers on the South African batsmen on Thursday.
In fact, at 83 for 9, Pakistan looked in peril of embarrassingly being bowled out underneath 100, sooner than a few lusty blows via tail-ender Wahab Riaz took them to the second one lowest ODI general at this flooring.
The only consolation for Pakistan, in what has been a disastrous begin to their marketing campaign, is that all the way through their triumphant march to the 1992 World Cup too, they misplaced their first sport to the West Indies!
Having played a few magical knocks with the bat lately, Russell showed his prowess with the ball here. Generating speed in the high 140s, he started the West Indies' assault via consuming the wickets of Fakhar Zaman, who used to be overdue whilst trying to hook a bouncer, as the ball hit the grille of his helmet sooner than rolling on to the stumps. Harris Sohail ended up edging a handy guide a rough delivery behind the stumps.
Like Zaman, Babar Azam played a poor stroke, nicking one off Thomas whilst fishing outdoor the stump at a time when Pakistan wanted their very best batsman to ride them out of the disaster.
