00:00two formidable cricketing nations go head-to-head in a series opener the first
00:12t20 international between the West Indies and Pakistan is about to start
00:17coming to you from Broad County Stadium here in Florida yeah it's a beautiful
00:24part of the United States of America the third most populous city just to remind
00:33you earlier at the toss she hope one after five losses and elected to bowl
00:39first these are the two teams a debut for Jewel Andrew of course t20 player 103 for
00:50the West Indies and the youngest to play t20 internationals for the West Indies that
00:56is and you look team you can see a few players with injury knowing shimran head
01:03ma no Brandon King for the West Indies and Pakistan with their stalwarts you think
01:09of for Shane Shaw pretty Harris Ralph and fuckers a man in that side
01:16a youthfulness in this Pakistan squad Saim Ayyub hasn't been in the best of form but
01:24he'll know these conditions here had the chance of playing in the Caribbean Premier
01:28League for the Ghana Amazon Warriors I've Zadar
01:35Farhan of course doing well in the short time at the top will want to continue
01:41that's this runs for Pakistan delivery down the lakeside help on its way for four
01:51enough enough power enough distance
02:01you goes legside and just enough power to get four
02:13a little bit wide wide enough why are you to get a second boundary in the over
02:24it's time for the peel and the finger goes up you get a sense that there was two sounds maybe a bit of bat
02:38ball tracking coming up pitching outside off in back in line wickets umpires fall thank
02:48you Reeves I'll have you stay with your original decision of out I'll let you know
02:52when you're on screen you're on screen now make the signal
02:55Farhan departs for 14 it's 26 for one
03:00that's a good shot nice use of the feet from Fakir
03:13such a good shot that because it's hit on the bounce it I don't think it was an
03:20out-and-out half volley
03:23magnificent strike from Fakir as a man
03:35nice shot very very clever from a Fakir as a man nine of that over 62 for one after eight
03:44the gap this is hit well goes through Sheeho the fielding was a problem for the West
03:56Sydney's against Australia and Chase is livid because it spoils the overall 74
04:00Jason Holder was in the circle at mid-off so he won't complete the catch
04:12well that has been pummeled and this is the talent of Simon you
04:25trying to force Simon you to hit through the offside and he will bring up just a second t20
04:38international 50 in 32 innings they've backed him they've trusted him and he
04:45loves this part of the world
04:46my word that is supreme ball striking and had all the flexibility with mid-off up one of three for one
05:00change of line from Jason Holder first the wide one then straight he has reviewed this though it's been given out on field
05:13ball tracking coming up impact in line wickets hitting
05:23resale have you stay with your original decision of out I'll let you know when
05:27you're on screen you're on screen make the signal he's gone 57 107 for two
05:35picked up sweetly and it gets into the hands of from Mario Shepard not enough power from fucker
05:47again just over pitch might have been a bit slow as well luring fuck as a man into the shot it's an
06:00excellent and well judged catch by Shepard I think that was going for another maximum
06:10fuck as a man goes for 28 from 24 Pakistan 110 to 3
06:16so the cover in the gap will be for little room on offer there and the was takes it gleefully
06:32that's in the slot that composure spells class long levers excellent timing and a great finish to the
06:49dover 15 gone 126 for three that's a clean strike goes all the way for six so after a few very good
07:05deliveries boulder gets too full
07:14taken safely Johnson Charles and because he's so strong down the ground Aquila said
07:22I said cut me punch me into the wind in the offside and Charles takes the catch yeah
07:33it's gone very wide way outside off stump does well to reach it and does well do it it so far it's a
07:44good catch at the fence and also intelligent bowling enterprising innings from Hassan Nawaz he goes for 24
07:54hundred and thirty six before that's a muscular shots really to hit that length all the way down the ground
08:07for six one four five four four four so he goes wide and very good very good bowling to the plan
08:22keeping it away from the arc the ball angling away and going further away from Nawaz it was difficult getting
08:34power into the shot he plays perfectly multi takes a good catch because it was just a little swerve on it
08:43one two oh mother was the latest to depart goes for nine it's 150 for five
08:52lot of height on it does it have enough distance oh no goodness me the catching again and some of the
09:06ground fielding. Tonight hasn't been greened either. Shilfane Rutherford.
09:15Has that got enough distance on it? It's got a lot of height, no distance, and Jason Holder
09:21finally, finally holds on another wicket for Shamar Joseph. His best figures in T20i
09:30for the West Indies. A wonderful return to this format for him. All smiles and he's
09:37got a brilliant smile. Yeah, again, no timing. He couldn't get underneath it. He was just
09:45slightly too full. Jason Holder, well, one, two, three attempts. Maybe hit his shoulder
09:54first, but it doesn't matter because Faheem Ashraf has gone back for 15. It's 172 for
10:02six.
10:07That is a wonderful shot. A wonderful way to end the innings. Muhammad Harris. He does
10:17that sort of thing. I'm surprised that he's come in this late.
10:20Simon Ubu stood out. 57. Classy runs. Faheem 28. Hassan Nawaz looked good for his 24 in contributions
10:32from Salman Aliaga. 11 of 10. 15 of 9 from Faheem Ashraf in just one ball and six for Harris.
10:42Three wickets for Shamar Joseph. Three for 30. Very respectable figures. His best in his T20i
10:50career. One for Jason Holder and Akeem Hussain and Romario Shepard as well.
11:00Become the youngest player to score a half century in that tournament. Took that record away from
11:07Nicholas Puran. So, as they say in Antigua and Barbuda, he's destined. He is a jewel, of course,
11:14from that region. This is an opportunity for Johnson Charles to prove to Darren Sammy that he's still
11:21the man. No 50s in 12 T20 internationals. Going back to the before the start of the T20 World Cup.
11:29Jamaica. So, he's got a point to prove. So does this man. The master of the first over.
11:36Shaheen Afridi is back. Just staying with Joel Andrew. Well, he was a part of the Ghana-Amazon
11:49Warriors team in that recent Global Super League tournament. Both himself and Johnson Charles.
11:55some timing to get your first boundary in T20 internationals.
12:14That will be six. He's one fearless young player, Joel Andrew. Even on debut, he's showing us that.
12:24He immediately goes for that Yorker. But misses. And Charles finally is able to secure a boundary.
12:43As fast as it has come on to the back, it's left it even faster. That is the power of Charles.
12:49He's finally gets one out the middle. 27 for none.
12:58That's disappeared as well. So, six off the last ball of the previous over.
13:04Followed up by six of the first ball of this over. Before the West Indies.
13:08The sound again. Off the bat. That's off the middle.
13:17And after a series of dot deliveries, he latches onto one. He unfurled on that for a maximum.
13:25And the pressing player was a winner. He's on. He's on the back.
13:30Nine-ah.
13:30Nine-ah.
13:31Do you get hold of it? Was there sufficient power?
13:35Indeed?
13:35Six-hour!
13:36Seven-hour!
13:36Ten-hour!
13:37Three-year-old!
13:38Three-year-old!
13:39Three-year-old!
13:39Four-year-old!
13:40Three-year-old!
13:41Three-year-old!
13:42Four-year-old!
13:43Three-year-old!
13:44Straight to the field and catch taken. So.
13:46Four-year-old!
13:47Four-year-old!
13:48The pressure, the containment leading to a wicket.
13:51and the opening partnership is finally broken out goes the debutant Joel
13:57Andrew
14:00you think that something had to give the last 30 balls 25 runs so pressure on
14:08and you're rolling out in the deep he goes for a very well played 35 on debut
14:17West Indies a 72 for one yep that sounded good that should be six or not
14:30brilliance from shine sharp really it had six written all over it but that
14:38athletic excellence coming into the way well this should be out should be taken
14:50and it is taken wicketkeeper Harris makes no mistake and Johnson Charles his toil out
14:58in the middle comes to an end
15:03if we get some successful overs in the for Pakistan I guess the message was you
15:11need to go you need to make something happen coming off high on the button an
15:18easy catch and for the wicked keeper
15:23Johnson Charles goes for 35 from 36 West Indies lose their second on 75
15:30what he goes with aggression first ball and finds deeper rickets so that move to
15:41Batmoti at number four not working for the West Indies and they slump to further
15:46the trouble what a bowling effort this has been from now as just three runs from the over
15:55multi trying to take on that leg side boundary but the effort from the fielders to support their
16:03bowler excellent stuff from Pakistan what he goes without scoring let's 75 for three
16:12another one down same are you into the attack and removes hope not all of hope but she who
16:27maybe even all of it as well power failure from shape that's the current ball so hitting against the
16:39perceived turn and finding the fielder to perfection a simple catch in the deep
16:46and the captain has to go West Indies slump further seven seven four four
16:53nice strike and West Indies need more of that from shipping Rutherford and company
17:04high and taken comfortably so another wicket to spin and another good safe catch in the outfield
17:21time strikes again I just wonder if this was the regulation of spinner yes it was but he's opting to hit in that direction
17:33with the wind it got a lot of height so it will just hold up well judged in the deep
17:39as a man with the catcher and they're going back quite quickly now the West Indians half the side down for 92
17:50that's the power that Romario Shepard can generate 100 is up 100 for five goes into the pitch and a Shepard deals with it because there's no deep backward square
17:57high it's skyd
18:03it's skyd out to deep cover and safely taken
18:12deals with it because there's no deep backward square
18:19tie it's skied out to deep cover and safely taken shine shot a 3d strikes
18:27rust and chase falls in the chase
18:33and with the catch again asking rust and chase to reach he's going away from the
18:43ball and he's gone wide and I just couldn't connect off the middle good bit
18:51of judgment in the deep seen a few drop catches tonight not this time and shine
18:57sharp Rudy gets his first one ten for six and he's got him straight away
19:08purposely held him back for Shepard the power is no more
19:16it's been spin to win from Pakistan that's the sixth wicket for the spinners
19:23just skidded through and onto the back foot and beaten for pace lovely bowling
19:31from Sufyan Mokeem Pakistan well they've got a firm grip on this game now courtesy
19:38the spinners Mario Shepard out for 12 West Indy is 110 to 7
19:48that's a lovely swing Jason holder has such a language swing of the back
19:55that has been time to perfection he can hit a few Jason hold as he's shown us this
20:09here that is six more an even better from Jason holder another fabulous shot he's got
20:30hold of that one has he had just enough we've seen this in the test format live
20:36fireworks from the West Indy's there still one percent chance in the final over one
20:40four five for seven does that have enough it does have enough ladies and
20:50gentlemen stay where you are this game is still on
20:55theОgfani
21:04oh rag legs side oh we have died he just truc snacks into the fence
21:08that will travel for six but it doesn't matter it has been a commanding win for a Pakistan team
21:16in transition under new leadership they've unearthed and found another gear today
21:23senior players back they've got the job done 1-0 to Pakistan
21:27the CJ United moment of the match goes to the boy from Barnes Hill Antigua 18 years old getting
21:37his cap from Casey Carty and it was definitely another chapter written in the story of Joel
21:43Andrew three sixes he definitely has fear less this CJ United moment of the match
21:54Pakistan marching to the United States of America and take a 1-0 lead Salman Agha will be very pleased
22:05with the way his batters went about things and then his spinners wreaked havoc in Florida
