PAK beat WI: Dominant Pakistan thrashes West Indies by 63 runs; becomes 1st team to win 18 T20Is in a calendar year

Chasing 201, West Indies got off to a bad start as Brandon King (1) was dismissed by Mohammad Nawaz in the second over of the innings. Nicholas Pooran also departed after scoring 18 off just 10 balls and West Indies was reduced to 33/2 in the fourth over.

Mohammad Wasim Jr then scalped his second wicket of the match as he dismissed Devon Thomas (2) and West Indies was staring down the barrel at 40/3 in the sixth over. The visitors kept on losing wickets at regular intervals, and in the end, Pakistan registered a comfortable victory to go 1-0 up in the series.

Earlier, Mohammad Rizwan played a 78-run knock as Pakistan posted a total of 200/6 in the 20 overs. Sent into bat, the hosts got off to a horrendous start as the side lost skipper Babar Azam (0) in the very first over. Fakhar Zaman also failed to leave a mark as he departed off the bowling of Romario Shephard after scoring just 10.

Haider Ali then joined Rizwan in the middle and the duo retrieved the innings for Pakistan. The duo put on 105 runs for the third wicket, which saw both batters crossing their half-century. Windies finally got the much-needed breakthrough in the 16th over as Rizwan (78) was dismissed by Shephard, reducing Pakistan to 140/3.

Haider also went on to play a knock of 68 and in the end, the hosts posted a total of more than the 190-run mark. Mohammad Nawaz also scored a quickfire 30 off just 10 balls.

PAK vs WI LIVE Score: Babar Azam’s Pakistan starts as a favorite but Pooran says ‘we can cause upset’: Follow 1st T20 LIVE Updates

PAK WI 1st T20 LIVE – The International cricket returns to Pakistan after New Zealand & England cancelled their scheduled tours.

Pakistan rotated their players in the Bangladesh T20Is, rightly figuring that some needed a bit of a rest after the T20 World Cup. They’re back at full strength now, apart from with only Shoaib Malik, Imad Wasim and Hasan Ali missing out.

West Indies will be missing Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Jason Holder, Shimron Hetmyer and Fabian Allen – but still are confident about the replacements coming good.

There’s the trio of Romario Shepherd, Odean Smith and Dominic Drakes – all fast-bowling allrounders. Each can hit the speed gun as well as the white ball to considerable distances, and all three could be in action in the first T20I.

“Pakistan is a top team in international cricket, right now. Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi are at top of the game. But it takes one good ball to get someone out and you know we’re looking forward to that kind of thing you know any player.l can have bad games. So, if we can stay confident then you know things can go away,” according to Pooran.
