Will Windies batting crush Pak. or will Pak bowling crush Windies. I'd say the former, but surprisingly to me, some commentators have Pak as favourites.

I've lost too much money on Pak over the years. Too many games they should have won and didn't. If WI bat first and get a halfway decent score then they should be good for the win.

Have they earned a drink?
Report Butchos123 June 7, 2013 11:48 AM BST
Why 200 and win? All the wickets have been lame batting, and they should be another down by now. Nothing really to suggest there's much in the pitch, is there?
Report Whisperingdeath June 7, 2013 11:50 AM BST
I'd like to see if it swings late afternoon / early evening and will the pitch take spin?  Then the game might get interesting if Pak post 220+  but I think this is an Albatross.

This pair are doing exactly what is needed at this stage.  If they went with the brainless attitude of the other batsmen then they would be all out for 85.

When it comes to collapses...there are few sides which would beat Windies to that..so if Pakistan scores 200 I am staying away from backing Windies.

Report Java June 7, 2013 12:00 PM BST
Agreed - this Pakistan attack is very good.  Of course Gayle/Samuels might make 200 look like a walk in the park, but they could easily get bogged down in a modest chase if they lose a couple of wickets.

All rockstars in Windies team and that sometimes can be the undoing for a rockstar team..no one bankable.

I think this is a big price still on WI. Wickets are not the problem at the moment, run rate is.

This is 50 overs...RR is never a problem in 50 overs till they reach 40 overs...wickets is..and Pakistan's main concern is wickets here not RR

Report Butchos123 June 7, 2013 12:14 PM BST
Hmm not sure I agree there, but let's face it, they're linked. 3 runs/over is pitiful in any limited overs format. 3 runs an over for the first 40 when they could be scoring say 5 will leave them 80 runs short of what they could have had!!

Only time would tell..if these two stay till 35 Pakistan would be more than 250 here..but that is if these two stay till then..Roach done with 7 overs..so lots of pie overs to come..

Pak could easily get 250 here still if they keep wickets in hand.  T20 has changed the way players think about the game.

This partnership was just what they needed.

Okaie so I was wrong..here is Naraine.

Can anyone see if Misbah is running down the pitch?  I am sure he is at times and am thinking that 240 might be a good score if that is the case.  Not sure Pak will get that far though
Report Butchos123 June 7, 2013 12:33 PM BST
Even if playing a la T20, that would leave them 140ish from the last 20. With 3 wickets down. 250 would be a tough ask.

Having said what Pakistan might do, I still think the most likely scenario is they lose 4 wickets during the power play and limp to 200.

windies will win, but they are sh1t when they play in this way.  The low total meant that they came out negative and it has cost them.  Windies are a serious threat when playing free-flowing, attacking cricket.
