Pakistan gave the target of 283 to West Indies in the 2nd ODI being played in Guayana today. Babar Azam made the career best 125 runs off 132 balls. Been a very fine innings, although we won’t know the true value for a few hours yet.

He’s helped give Pakistan a decent target to defend even taking into account what happened in the first match. He and Imad Wasim added 99 in 11 overs to give a stalled innings a late turbo-charge. West Indies were very good for 40 overs, pretty poor for the final 10. But the chase will be well within their compass. It should be an interesting second half.

Updates to follow.
