Live Cricket Score of Pakistan vs West Indies, 2nd ODI at Sharjah

Alright then. Azhar Ali and Sharjeel Khan out in the middle to open Pakistan's innings. Jason Holder with the ball.

West Indies will seek a turnaround in their fortunes after slipping to an ignominious 111-run defeat in the first ODI in Sharjah. On a slow track, Babar Azam crunched his maiden ODI ton to power Pakistan to 284. While chasing down a sizeable total, barring Marlon Samuels, none of West Indies' batsmen were able to negate the spin threat of Mohammad Nawaz as the visitors were bundled for a modest total.

The slow left-arm orthodox bowler combined clever flight and the arm-ball to befuddle the opposition and pick up four wickets. With Johnson Charles struggling for runs, Evin Lewis might make his debut in the 50-over format. In the bowling department, West Indies will depend on Benn and Narine to make their presence felt on what is expected to be a turning track.

On the other hand, Pakistan are set to remain unchanged as they aim to take an unassailable lead in the three-match rubber.

Four balls into his spell and Amir has got his team the breakthrough. Charles's attempted drive has been pouched by Imad Wasim at cover and West Indies have already lost a man in their tall chase of 338. Darren Bravo walks in.

Pakistan skipper Azhar Ali has won the toss and elected to bat first. The hosts are unchanged, as expected.

West Indies have been forced to make a change. Shannon Gabriel has got a sore neck so Alzarri Joseph will be making his ODI debut.

We'll get you both the playing XIs shortly.
