Multan: West Indies have set 306 target for Pakistan in first ODI that is being played in Multan.
West Indies finished on 305 for 8. West Indies lost Kyle Mayers early but Shai Hope and Shamarh Brooks kept the scoreboard ticking.
The duo added 154 runs for the second wicket and while Mayers fell, Hope carried on. He soon brought up 12th century and also became the joint third-fastest to 4,000 ODI runs.
While Shaheen Shah Afridi bowled well, Haris Rauf and Hasan Ali were expensive. Rauf did pick up four wickets but ended up going for 77 runs in his 10 overs. Shadab was miserly, as he conceded just 37 runs in his 10 overs.
