World Cup 2019: Pakistan Vs West Indies


Match details

West Indies vs Pakistan, ICC World Cup match 2
May 31, 2019, 03:00 pm IST

Venue : Trent Bridge, Nottingham

details

Established in 1841, Trent Bridge has undergone a lot of renovation in recent times that has made the outfield even smaller and left it in an unusual shape. The boundary is straight instead of being curved on one side and it can be terrifyingly short. Nottingham is expected to be cloudy for most of the time. But good news is that rain is expected to stay away during the match. The pitch looks a belter with a hint of reverse swing on offer in the later stages of the innings. 

Preview

West Indies will be up against Pakistan for the 2nd fixture of World Cup 2019. Both the teams are unpredictable and can win any match on their day. The match will be played at Trent Bridge, Nottingham on 31st May 2019 at 3:00 pm IST. The contest promises to be a cracker as both the sides are expected to come out packed full strength against each other.

West Indies is the team with the most explosive batsman and X-Factor player. The team would be happy with the warm-up match performance as the Hope, Holder and Russell scored some good runs. A lot would be expected from Cottrell, Thomas and Nurse.

Pakistan has been unpredictable since the last four years. Since winning the title against the best side in the tournament, India, in Champions Trophy 2017, they have gone through a rather topsy-turvy path.
