Day one is end but Pakistan still have a chance if they can take early wickets on Day 2 and prevent them from set bigger target. Overall, it looks like a balanced match till now and the next session could decide which team will get the early advantage.

The West Indies team was facing a huge snake due to the dismissal of the three top batsmen Chanderpaul, Brandon king and Amir jangoo. But these two Shai Hope and Kavem Hodge have kept the game alive. If they can hold the game firmly and bat patiently, then in the end the West Indies team can give a big run target to the Pakistan team. This is the last list of top batsmen, after them there are no more patient batsmen, they will play a military role for the team.
But if this pair breaks, then it is the best opportunity for the Pakistan team, and if Shai Hope and Kavem Hodge can play their best role for the team, then this will be the biggest run-scoring tool for the West Indies team. The Pakistan team created a lot of bowling pressure in the beginning and easily fell three wickets of the West Indies team. But let's see at the end of the day, can the West Indies team give the result to the talkers?

No doubt west indies play good on first day against pakistan and shows that they have the strength to fight because Pakistan was taking them too lightly . A beautiful and classical innings by k hodge while shay hope is also giving help in partnership . On the other side Pakistani bowler abbas has taken 2 wicket and amir Jamal has took 1 wicket . If pakistan wants to dominate they should take wickets earlier in day 2 .

Muhammad Abbas got the single wicket early in the first 10 overs, it actually helped Pakistan in dominating the early stages of the game and when the first 10 overs done, that time I was hoping that it's the perfect time where Muhammad Ali needs to come in the game and show his skills. But of course, as Muhammad Abbas got a wicket early, that's why he started the spell and then the next over was delivered by Muhammad Ali, as expected.

It's time to see Babar Azam back as captain, he did this work in the warm-up match too, where he also smashed a century, but still now it is the actual job. In that tour match, actually Babar Azam got retired hurt, he got injured but that was not so high he has recovered it very well, now feeling much better. By the way, if we talk about the bowling of the Pakistan team, Muhammad Abbas got Brandon King at 8.2, provided the sense of demotivation in the West Indies early.

The Pakistan bowlers need to try to avoid wides and no-balls. In this innings, Pakistan gave up to 25 runs to their opponent, West Indies, with these wides and no-balls.

Especially, all the full-time pacers are making this mistake, for example, Abbas, Mohammad Ali, and especially Khurram Shahzad did multiple no-balls and these are the small things that seem small, but they are about to change the momentum of the game.

Pakistan in first innings gave 29 extras which include 10 no-balls and 3 wide balls, they need to work over this issue because you are giving too many free runs to opposite team. West Indies team was able to score 311 runs because of Kavem Hodge 84 runs and Shai Hope 92 runs. If Pakistani bowlers have picked up there wicket also then West Indies score of first innings can be reduced to 250. Now Pakistani team is batting and in 15 overs they have scored 85 runs and only batsmen who got out is Azan Awais.

West Indies vs Pakistan 1st Test has been started already. After West Indies finished their batting by scoring 311 runs, opponent Pakistan started their first innings but lost two early wickets already. At the end of Day two's session, Pakistan is doing great but they were still trailing by 155 runs. To fulfill this gab, Pakistan needs to batting with patience and go to ahead with discipline, which will be very important for Pakistan if they want to overcome the situation. Currently a solid batting line with strong partnership need the most, to reduce the deficit and create pressure back on the opponent. On the other hand, west indies team also looking more confident as they hunted two quick wickets and maintain their advantage. The remaining sessions could decide the direction of this Test match.

[JSRAW]

Pitch seems to be different for both teams.

Windies took a conservative approach and made pak grinds for almost 100 overs but didn't score much, if wasn't for shamar Joseph's little cameo then their score rate would've been under 3. Meanwhile pak's batters batting on road and making it look like too easy with over 4 RR. Bobsy can't catch a break tho.

Pakistan are currently at the bottom of the points table in the World Test Championship. If we look at match odds, West Indies are at 3.20 while Pakistan are the clear favourites at 1.35 to win this Test match. If someone wants to take a risk, choosing West Indies at these odds could be a profitable option, because it gives a higher payout compared to Pakistan.


Pakistan batting lineup is looking quite strong especially top order in the first innings. West Indies posted a competitive total in their first innings, but Pakistan have now reached close to 200 runs, still trailing by 100-plus runs. Shan Masood is well set at the crease and has provided stability to the team with a solid innings close to his century, while Babar Azam is struggling and didn't contribute to much. West indies bowling side, Jayden Seales went wicketless in his spell, showing that Pakistan's top order has handled him well. Pakistan position looks quite comfortable so far at the end of Day 2, and if Shan Masood continues to hold his ground, Pakistan's trail could reduce quickly.

Pakistan team has shown their performance in this match, but Azan Awais got out at the beginning of Pakistan team's batting, surprising everyone.
Because losing wickets in Test matches is a threat for the team, but Shan Masood has filled the void of Azan Awais. The chances of Pakistan team winning this match are gradually increasing, as time passes Pakistan team is moving towards more wins. Babar Azam is out and Salman Agha he will perform if he can hold the game and be patient and in this partnership Shan Masood can score a century.

In the first Test match of the West Indies team against Pakistan today, the West Indies team batted and scored 311 runs in the first innings. Shai Hope and Kavem Hodge, these two batsmen, batted well for the West Indies, due to which the team was able to increase its score. Kavem Hodge scored 84 runs, and Shai Hope scored 92 runs, the two batsmen gave Pakistan a good target today. However, Pakistan has already lost 3 wickets while batting, but the way they are batting, they will be able to meet the target of the West Indies team in today's match. Imam-ul-Haq got out after scoring 63 runs, Shan Masood is still batting brilliantly, at the moment he has scored 88 runs from his bat and is still unbeaten. However, in today's match, the Pakistan team will definitely be able to meet the target, since they are still playing, so they can meet the target and give a big lead to the West Indies.

as time passes Pakistan team is moving towards more wins. Babar Azam is out and Salman Agha he will perform if he can hold the game and be patient and in this partnership Shan Masood can score a century.

Yes, If we compare the performance of both team, then i think Pakistan is on right side. Their bowlers did good task like Mohammad Ali who contributed with 4 wickets and Mohammad Abbas who dismissed their 3 batsman. Weat Indies is standing on 311 totals. Shai Hope was the only who played like a rock, continuously playeing his turn and reached on 92 runs. Now Pakistan is on the ground, their began as not appealing because of Azan Awais who was out on duck. But the duo of Imamula Haq and Shan Masood established strong foundation for the team. Currently team is on 199/3, all are waiting for day 2 match. Pakistani team have enough wickets as well if they played well or if they succeed in saving their wickets then results could be in their favour.

This Pakistan batting approach is interesting for me because I was not expecting they would play aggressively like this, but they are doing a good job. Shan Masood, after losing captaincy, is doing well. Imam ul Haq is always reliable in this format.

If Pakistan manages for a lead of 150 to 200, which could be good for them to have a winning chance on this road. Weather is also having its part because bookies are offering a draw as a hot favourite, but both teams are always ready to give good, entertaining, and unpredictable cricket for both fans and bettors .

Shan Masood is removed from captaincy and probably that has eased out pressure from him to focus on his batting. Shan Masood has scored his seventh test hundred and due to that superb knock Pakistan now just 67 runs short of West Indies first innings total of 311 runs with seven wickets in hand. Still 2 more days left in this test. If Pakistan can take a good lead in first innings and then bowl out West Indies quickly then Pakistan has a chance to win this test though its not easy to bat on last day of the test.   

[Aliikhanii]

Now at day 3 and session 1 Pakistan is trail by 67 runs and pakistan is at 244/4 in 62 overs and only four wickets are down while Shan masood is looking in a good form and is playing at 109 of 178 balls notout and salman Ali agha is out and rizwan has came out to the crease and salman agha have made 20 runs off 60 balls on the other side from west indies only shamar joseph have took 2 wickets pakistan is in good position and have a chance to win this match

Those who actually bet on Pakistan after seeing the 155-run partnership between Shan Masood and Imam-ul-Haq when Pakistan's innings started, I think it's time for them to cash out unless they want to see their entire money washed out.

I myself didn't expect Pakistan to get off to such a good start, to become as volatile as memecoin like dumping suddenly and lose wickets so quickly that they would be all out for just 282 runs. Anyway, Justin Greaves has done a great job, his bowling stats are very pleasing to the eye, 5 wickets and 2.45econ.

Now it remains to be seen how the Pakistani bowlers perform. If they can bowl well and bowl out the West Indies team for 270 runs, then there is a possibility that the result of the match will go in their favor again.

Pakistan position in test match was strong till the time Shan Masood was on the pitch. After getting wicket of Shan Masood, WI bowlers didn't find it difficult to bowl out rest of Pakistani batting lineup. Justin Greaves not only picked up key wicket of Shan Masood but also picked four more wickets. WI have also started there second innings and there start is not good as they have lost 2 wickets in first 5 overs. Muhammad Abbas is the one who picked both wickets. It's good start by Pakistani bowlers and they need more wickets to restrict WI to low target.

[Out of mind]

After the top order batsmen of Pakistan team were out, all the other batsmen could not survive by batting for a long time. Basically, we could see that after being out in the opening, Shan Masood took over the game and he scored 109 runs. After he was out, the other batsmen could not bat for a long time. The West Indies team had given a target of 311 runs, the Pakistani players failed to meet this target, although it was not a very big target, the Pakistan team scored 282 runs and got all out. However, the batting performance of West Indies in the second innings was not very convenient, they scored 15 runs in 8 overs and lost 2 wickets. At the moment, the West Indies team has created a lead of 44 runs, but the bowling performance of Pakistan team is very good at the moment, they are trying to put pressure on West Indies. If the West Indies team cannot play at the moment, then maybe they can get close to 200 runs and get all out.
