Pak bowlers have done a decent job on a track which is ideal for batting, lets c what WI can put on the board. This is going to be a match btw the two teams batting prowess more than their bowling attacks.

yaar 4 RPO on this pitch is a pretty decent effort by the bowlers. The conditions are excellent for batting. Anything less than 270-275 is below par on this pitch

Samuels gone stumped 104-3 (26.1)

15+ overs left, with 7 wickets remaining, including lara, anything is possible.

even scores of 250 can be tough to chase under lights, especially with out brittle batting

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

agree with you there. So Pakistan will have to bat well. It's never easy chasing anything above 250 under the lights. I think Inzi's decision was influenced by two factors
a- WI are known to be good chasers
b- Pakistan have won two games in this series chasing a target albeit the first win was n't very convincing.

bad decision to bring on rehman at this stage of the match

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

^ it's just a test, and why not .. there's a lot more to gain than to lose.

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

why not? because lara is known to play very well against spinners
the 2nd ball of the over went for four by lara

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

I know .. but that's no reason to not give your bowler a chance to prove himself.

52

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

just a test? lol
u dont do "tests" when the series is on the line
and u def. dont test against a world class player like lara
oh and not to mention our batting line up
chasing 250 under lights as mentioned above does seem a bit difficult

53

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

i hope rehman and inzi both prove me wrong tho!
anything for a wicket right now yaar

You're stating the obvious. But you're seeing the benefit it'll give to the bowler. There's no guarantee that Lara won't go after fast bowlers because he will. You have got to take chances to do anything out of ordinary.

BOWLED! NAVEED TO LARA

56

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

i guess it does really boosts the bowlers confidence over all
especially someone new like rehman

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

u think they'll hit 250?

58

Re: Pakistan vs West Indies - 5th ODI - National Stadium, Karachi (D/N)

Exactly. Thank you for seeing it. I think they'll probably end up around 240-260. Depending on how we bowl.
