Pakistan take an unassailable 2-0 lead with a comfortable 59 run victory

I hear what people are saying about West Indies batting rather selfishly. But in their position, I think their mentality is to play for respectability. When your confidence has been hammered so much, your ambitions change from trying to win to "losing with dignity" - Bangladesh before their rise would do this, just looking to bat 50 overs whenever faced with a tough chase.

They've been rolled over 4 matches in a row, their batting awful beyond description, I guess their batsmen want time in the middle and just demonstrate some improvement in playing spin.

To be fair, had their bowling had any potency and reduced us to 280-285, this would be a very gettable chase. Its been their best batting display on this tour tonight.
 
Maybe common sense isn't that common when it comes to Azhar, because that is exactly what is going to happen.


The pacers do not have enough overs left to bowl out the remaining overs.

Well he's managed to keep it tight so it didn't matter in the end
 
This guy Pollard needs to be kicked out of WI team.
 
Azhar only brought Imad earlier because he got holder out in the first odi and holder was clueless against his bowling. Good move by skipper. Don't think that these decisions are supposed to work all the time

You're right man. I didn't know that.

Things don't work that way. Not everyday teams defend 337. Football managers don't keep the same strategy for a 7-0 win, if it's against Andorra.
 
Thats a single - barring no Balls and/or Wides - Pakistan go 2-0 Up MashAllah!
 
Malik taking Pollard's catch and then looking at him with those innocent eye's...just kidding
 
Arthur is going to bruise some palms in next catching session
 
Job done. Congratulations everyone !

That's 7 LOI wins in succession.
 
Well, I thought 60 would be the margin, but 59 is fine.

Not a convincing performance to be honest defending 337.

Moan should be mom. Without his blitzes & 5 overs, it was probably 1-1.

Yes Malik should be mom
 
Do we overtake the Windies in the rankings if we sweep them 3-0?

May be it's not common here at PP, but 'Moon' is what we call him in Sialkot. His original nick name.
