Pakistan vs West Indies

Recovering from the early jolts provided by the West Indies fast bowler Tonge, Pakistan chase down 134 in the 30.1 overs, managing a 5-wicket win. Gavin Tonge ended with brilliant figures of 4-25 off his 10 overs along with 3 maidens but his efforts went in vain as Umar Akmal(41*) handled the situation towards the end. He along with his skipper Afridi(17*) added an unbeaten 58 for the 6th wicket which took them home. Stay tuned for the presentation news..

Umar Akmal is chosen the Man of the Match for his sensible innings that took Pakistan to victory.

Despite the loss, West Indies will take a lot of heart from this game making Pakistan struggle for that win. That's it then. Do join us back tomorrow as the hosts play the Kiwis in another day-night encounter. Cheers!
