Pak-WI Second Test

The second test is interestingly poised. My prediction (which historically has seldom turned out to be correct!) is that Pak will win this test. Here are some of my reasons:

  • The Pak team has a rare killer instinct.
  • A target of around 300 in the last innings is always hard.
  • West Indies has played very consistently this test series. This is a pretty inconsistent phenomenon in itself! In other words, a complete failure from the WI is long over due.
  • Lara, whose batting forms the backbone, has scored consistently and its about time he fails.

  1. Pran, although my gut tells me you’ll end up being right I want so much for the Windies to win. Not because of any Anti-Pak feelings, but because I want cricket in the west indies to come back in popularity. I think it’ll be great if Chanders can win a test series. It’ll also be a boost for the coach King. Also, the bowlers will realize that unless they deliver, the team can never be in a position to win. The last innings is always a mental game. If Gayle and Smith can give a good start I have a feeling that Sarwan, Lara and Chanders will pull them through. I also think sending Wavell Hinds at 6 is a good strategy. Go WI!!!- Brotherman
