Perfect start to the World Cup, at least for West Indies it was.. The host nation taking on Pakistan at Sabina Park, Jamaica..The West Indies made a great comeback while batting from the situation they were in.. Marlon Samuels and Brian Lara led the way followed by a Blitzkrieg by Dwayne Smith.. Umar Gul and Rao Iftikar were the pick of the Pakistan bowlers..
The West Indies struck early blows and followed it with wickets at periodic intervals.. Dwayne Smith again played a vital part getting the wickets of Mohammad Yousuf and Inzamam.. Dwayne Bravo was amazing both while bowling and fielding.. Shoaib Malik was the only one who put up a good fight scoring 62 off 54 balls..
Dwayne Smith picked up the man of the match with a fine performance.. A great team effort by the West Indies and a thoroughly deserved victory..
