Yeah, who would be dropped for next test? They have to make some change after such collapse? Lol Can they drop Younis in his farewell test? That will be funny. 

Was the highest scorer in their top order, Ahmed Shehzad???  So they can't drop the one that the Windies keep dropping either :D

They will probably drop poor youngster Shadab Khan for batting failure.

Yeah, most likely - It was silly to pick him for this test anyway.  I hope the 3rd test is on a proper bouncy pitch.   Where do they play it? Hope its Guyana and not Trinidad.

Dominica. A lot on line for both teams. Pakistan has never ever won a test series in West Indies.

OP/ Mods, the title is misleading. please change it immediately. Pakistan did not "collapse". They staged a stirring and fighting comeback to reach the grand total of 81 after being 37/7 :hatsoff:

 

Granted WI fielders dropped a few sitters but we shouldn't hold those drops against the Pak rearguard action and should give credit where due. I'm in awe of the wonderful fightback displayed by the cornered tigers and the title needs to reflect the same :agree:

Nothing to see here folks. Minor blip guys. It happens (to Pakistan). We will still win the series.

Come on.  Be honest for a bit - you know pak team will be staining their pants (not green) in the next test after a bad session or 2.    So will the fans.   Windies came within 40 odd runs of winning the test series in UAE.  Now they are playing at home, and have come from behind to tie the series.  The black soil of Dominca awaits.   Home of the "Black pearl".  :D

 

Lucky for you its a dhoos  draw type pitch.   If the game boils down to better batting on a dead pitch and Yasser vs Bishoo, then yeah Pak probably end up winning.  Given the fact that Windies (B) will give away at least 3 wickets each innings, and drop about 5 chances from the Pak top order.

On serious note,Windies need to bring back Darren Bravo, he is probably their best test batsman who should be playing in West Indies team right now. Got to have few seniors like him. 

 

Imagine the leftie Darren Bravo coming back and Narine, and this Windies test team can be a good side for the future. Rostom Chase already seems like a really good player.

Their batting really good in both matches first innings but they are not being patient in 2nd innings. Still Pakistan has good chance to win the series. Once younis and misbah retire they might struggle little bit more. But bazar looks a good bat.

Who? The guy who got a pair this Test and couldn't buy a run on pattas in Australia? :giggle:

Losing to this WI team isn't a minor blip. They have beaten you twice in recent months. Think about it.
