The Pakistan batting line-up was on the verge of collapse during a fixture of the Pakistan’s Test Series against the West Indies as they had a paltry 113 runs and six out by lunch.
The Pakistan team rarely manages to disappoint when it comes to bringing excitement into any game. Sometimes it is at the expense of the opposition but at times the Pakistan team manages to make something simple look utterly difficult. West Indies has found
batting difficult on day one against the spin attack of Pakistan but they probably applied themselves on the pitch http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gordon-Muchall-c1499 better than the Pakistan batting line up.
Muhammad Hafeez had already played one on before lunch and Pakistan had ended the first session at 45 for one. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Azhar-Ali-c46890 started the second session pretty much how they ended the first. The left-right batting duo looked circumspect but in
control of proceedings. The two had added 57 runs together to the total and 12 after lunch when Taufeeq was out LBW to http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Darren-Julius-Garvey-Sammy-c52468. Taufeeq made 19 runs from 62 balls with two boundaries.
Captain Misbah Ul Haq walked in next, and the right hander was oozing with confidence and was relishing the chance of leading his team’s first test series win in the Caribbean. That seems quite far away now as Misbah could only manage two runs from 13 balls
before being trapped LBW by leg spinner Devendra Bishoo.
Next man in was the promising http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shafiq-c89281 back following a referral. Just before Sahfiq Azhar Ali was clean bowled by Sammy, the right hander seemed to have misread the line
of the ball and shouldered arms to a ball that was angled in and kept coming in until it rattled the stumps. Azhar made 34 from 73 balls with 5 fours.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Salman-c88163 came out together with a little stand with Akmal for 14 runs before he was also out LBW to Bishoo for just 4. Umar Akmal was unbeaten at tea for 27 runs with
left arm spinner and left handed batsman http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdur-Rehman-c41691 not out at 13 on the other end. Pakistan at 113 for 6 and are still trail West Indies by 113 runs.
