5 things West Indies must do to save the second Test against Pakistan

#2 Lacklustre pace bowlers

Shannon Gabriel has to work on not giving away freebies

The fast bowlers, led by the pacy Shannon Gabriel, were too wayward allowing Pakistan batsmen to settle in nicely. Gabriel was the major culprit over-stepping as many as 10 times in the first innings. Inspite of consistently bowling in and around the 140kmph mark, Gabriel never found the groove that he had during the tri-series in the Caribbean against Australia and South Africa.

Jason Holder was consistent but not threatening, but again, that isn’t enough for the Windies. The pace bowlers will have to up their game to provide some support to Bishoo and Roston Chase. With Younis Khan set to return to the fold for Pakistan, the bowling needs to be extra sharp.
