In the field the WI look as if they are just going through the motions! Unimaginative leadership. In the final analysis the sum of the parts of Pakistan team is far superior to the West Indies.

As I said guys I am a cricket lover so every game is a chance to have hope renewed 
. Given that the convention is to double the 30-over score I think that Pakistan has already scored too many runs for the West Indies to chase down (112-1 after 26.4 overs @ 4.20 per over). For the most part the Pakistani batsmen look in absolutely no trouble; sadly one cannot see the wi batsmen batting with anything like a similar degree of confidence. To be staring defeat in the face from such a long way out is depressing. I remember what we used to say when i was a boy, "Buck-sick is a burden!" All yuh know dat one?

if yu ever played horse racing howzat, you wud know what handicapping is.
yu can handicap anything at all same way as horses are... with as much accuracy as your talent can achieve.
the situation is out there ..it is if you have the ability to tell from all dat has gone orn before what shape the coming events will take.
my handicapping of this westindies team based on all I know it of, all that has gone on previously, the relative abilites of the players etc., I know the most likely result is a westindian cutarse.
nutten is impossible but this runs the way it reveals almost all the time!

now, now mapoui no need for sarcasm Pakistan strategy must be to win these remaining games so conclusively that wi will be totally demoralised before the test series starts. The first 2 games were won convincingly chasing. Any hope wi had in the third was snuffed out by a committed lower order batting performance - again chasing. And now in this one the wi is being given a master class in batting to setup a total that the bowlers will defend. Even if it rains and the game ends in a no result wi can not take any crumbs of comfort from this performance.
