Trial match

Pakistan vs Pakistan 'A'

Pakistan A

Pakistan

Pakistan won by 7 wickets

MOTM: Shahid Afridi

Not a bad warmup match, I feel like Mujtaba really belongs in the main team. Stellar knock that. Wasim and Shoaib were too much for the A team. Applying the pressure and all. Boom boom Afridi fitting in the opener's spot nicely. Perfect guy for that era.

Same lineup for the first game!

 

[jimmy101]

Trial match

West Indies vs West Indies 'A'

West Indies

West Indies A

West Indies 'A' won by 4 wickets
