"Akmal is a good shot-maker when he plays orthodox shots rather than trying to invent things which generally end up on the leg side."

I'm not really sure how impressive this stat is, but television graphics tell me Umar Akmal has been 'in control' of 93% of his shots, middling 85% of them. He's certainly playing well, bringing up his 20th ODI half-century by clattering a short and wide ball through point for four. A classy knock.

Jason Holder takes a leaf from Brendon McCullum's book and brings back his gun bowler, Jerome Taylor, to try and finish off Pakistan. The nippy seamer instantly beats Umar Akmal's outside edge. Still no boundaries, but good running between the wickets keeps the scoreboard slowly ticking over.

Ilyas Najib:, external I don't know why but I'm still holding on to the most minute of hope that Pakistan can fight back.

Shahid Afridi is the new man to the crease. Can he roll back the years? Is there one last big match-winning knock in Boom Boom's locker?

"A low full toss, and Maqsood cleared the front the leg and and swung hard, but it hit low on the bat and therefore did not supply the power that Maqsood would have wanted. Benn judged the catch nicely."

A fine, promising innings from Sohaib Maqsood comes to an end when he mis-times a full toss and chips a catch towards mid-off where Sulieman Benn takes an excellent, diving catch. A disappointing end to an excellent knock.

Scorecard

Radio 5 live sports extra commentary

Sohaib Maqsood celebrates Pakistan reaching three figures by coming down the track to Benn and planting four over mid-wicket. That brings up his fifth ODI half-century. What a time it would be to get his maiden ton.

Nah, not out. Maqsood got his back foot back in his crease in time. Good work from both Benn and Ramdin nonetheless.

Big Benn gets one to beat the outside edge of Maqsood and the wicketkeeper whips off the bails. Is he out? The square leg umpire is unsure and asks the third umpire to have a look.

The strapping Sammy continues, with his languorous, loping run-up. He has been expensive so far, but tightens up his line here and gives up just three singles.

Denesh Ramdin is chirpy behind the stumps, and he tries to unsettle Umar Akmal. "He's going to sweep here, Suli," he bellows. A no ball brings a free hit and Akmal's eyes light up... he stays back in his crease and belts the ball high into the sky before it drops into space at deep mid-wicket bringing the batsman two runs.

"From total ruin, Pakistan are just hinting at a rebuilding process - but there's a long, long way to go. There's just a smidgeon of a chance."

The required run-rate is eight an over now, which is why the West Indies are content to let Pakistan have ones and twos. As long as they don't threaten the boundaries, the boys from the Caribbean will be happy. Two singles from Darren Sammy's latest over.

"Pakistan have kept the asking rate manageable. They're playing it well, showing urgency and knocking the ball into the gaps."

"Nice, Benny," shouts the West Indies wicketkeeper as the spinner alters his length when he sees Sohaib Maqsood dancing down the track to him. It's all a bit easy for Pakistan at the moment though. The Windies' intensity has gone and they are knocking the ball into the gaps. It's like a net session.

On such a decent batting track, there's not much menace from the medium pace of Darren Sammy. The Windies know this and wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin stands up to the bowling in an attempt to keep the two batsmen in their crease. Umar Akmal looks in good touch as he guides the ball off his hips and takes three. Five from the over.

Bryan Waddle

"The intensity has gone a little out of the West Indies effort. Pakistan are starting to score relatively freely, the asking rate remains seven - the only impediment to them chasing this total is that they've lost five wickets, and there's not a lot of batting to come."
