Key Points(5)
  • West Indies Women came from behind to stun Pakistan in a nerve-jangling super over, making a clean sweep of their three-match Twenty20 International series in Grenada on Sunday.
  • Bundled out for a paltry 88 off 19.5 overs, the West Indies capitalized on a rain break which saw Pakistan’s target adjusted to 78 off 17 overs, and hit back to restrict the visitors to 77 for seven at the National Stadium to leave scores tied.
  • In the all-important super over, seamer Deandra Dottin snatched two wickets as Pakistan Women scraped together just three runs and West Indies Women survived the loss of Dottin off the first ball, to reach their target off the last ball of the over when Kyshona Knight struck a boundary.
  • Sent in, West Indies Women were 63 for four in the 14th over, but lost their last six wickets for 25 runs to be dismissed under 100.
  • Team Pakistan will continue to South Florida this week, for a special T20 showcase with the U.S.
