2nd Test: West Indies vs Pakistan
Pakistan can win their first ever Test series in the Caribbean when they take on West Indies in the second Test in beautiful Barbados.
The bouncing bars and restaurants of St Lawrence Gap will empty on Sunday as cricket lovers head to Bridgetown in the hope that the Windies batters have learned from their opponents. Betting tips suggest they face a tough task, with Pakistan odds on to repeat their triumph at Sabina Park in the first Test.
Sports betting fans, with a love for the sound of leather on willow, will look at the batting performance of the two teams in Jamaica for clues. They need look no further than the great Younis Khan who scores 58 in the first innings to become the first Pakistan player to score 10,000 runs in Test cricket. He’s the 13th player to achieve that milestone in world cricket.
And Pakistan Skipper Misbah-ul-Haq was in explosive form, hitting 99 in the first innings. And then with his side needing just 32 to win in the second innings, smashed two successive sixes to win the game.
West Indies captain Jason Holder bemoaned his own team’s failure to reach 300 runs, having watched his side lose four wickets in the morning session of the first day. He said: “We didn’t get enough runs in the first innings. Yasir Shah did bowl well in the second innings but we could have batted a lot better.”
The problem for Holder, though, is that there is more to come from Pakistan.
