Scorer: Ranjith P | Commentator: Danyal Rasool

Right, guys, it's been so much fun being around you guys this evening. We didn't get a result, but we talked Olympics, we watched Pakistan bring a very explosive West Indies batting line-up to heel, and we saw a glimpse of what Kieron Pollard can do at the end. Can't wait for the next three games as the series moves to Providence, Guyana. See you then!

02.02pm: The match has been abandoned

Roddy: "Hi guys. Can someone explain why even an additional few minutes to drain the outfield isn't possible? Not for for the fans. Can surely be more flexible " Because it's cricket, and cricket does things its own way. Can't really give you much more than that, I'm afraid.

This looks grim folks. We need to start in about 10 minutes to avoid a rained-out game, and that seems a tall order.

NAUMAN: "Ultimate dream in street cricket, bat and then don't have to ball/field."

So if there's no play till 02:06pm, it's a washout

Hello! Yep, rain's in the air as I take over.

As Jawad puts it: "Whenever himanshu gives it to Danyal, rain sets in. AHHH, the olympic swimming curse."

END OF OVER:
9 | 13 Runs | WI: 85/5 | RR: 9.44

  • Kieron Pollard22 (9b)
  • Jason Holder2 (4b)
  • Shaheen Shah Afridi2-0-20-0
  • Hasan Ali2-0-11-2

Catch Danyal for the chase, but it's drizzling at the moment and we'll provide an update as soon as we have one.

Mustafa S: "Hopefully rain doesn't disrupt this, this is shaping to be a great competition!"

Isaac Marshall: "Aside from Pollie, Pakistan completely dominated."

1.38pm That's the end of the West Indies innings, and here comes the drizzle too. The pitch has been immediately covered by the ground staff. Anyway, it was always going to be a shootout with just nine overs to play and West Indies did well to post 85. There were far too many dot balls, credit for which must go to Pakistan, who did well with the slower balls and the ones turning too.

Shaheen Shah Afridi to Pollard, SIX, length ball on middle and off, and pulled with a crackling sound! Pollard stays deep in his crease with his front leg out of the way as well, and tonks that beyond the deep square leg fence to end the innings with a six

Last ball. 85 anyone?

Shaheen Shah Afridi to Pollard, 2 runs, another short of a length ball on middle and leg, and he miscues a pull. But the ball lands safely much before deep midwicket could run ahead that far

Shaheen Shah Afridi to Pollard, FOUR, another short ball on middle and leg, but this time he finds the gap between deep midwicket and deep square. This was bowled much quicker, and he rode the bounce too while playing with his front leg in the air
8.3
0
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Pollard, no run, and he is beaten on his pull. Short delivery at just 124kph on middle and off, and Pollard swings and swivels too early

Ready then. Pollard has four balls to make an impact.

Pollard getting disturbed with his bat, with the handle being damaged in all probability. Out comes a substitute with four bats

Swathi: "Just tuning into this match. It is crazy to see that extras given has been the highest score till now."

8.2
1
Shaheen Shah Afridi to Holder, 1 run, yorker length on middle, and at 138kph. Holder steps across, but can only lob that toward deep midwicket with the ball coming off really low on the bat
