West Indies facilitated to a seven-wicket triumph over Pakistan in their World Cup opener at Trent Bridge on Friday after an Oshane Thomas-drove pace assault cleared them away for 105.
2019 cricket world cup: Opener Chris Gayle, set to resign toward the finish of the competition, drove the Windies answer with a rankling 50 off 34 balls as the two-times champions pursued down the aggregate, achieving 108-3 with 36.2 overs to save.
Having chosen to handle, West Indies utilized cloudy conditions as Thomas took four wickets for 27 runs, while commander Jason Holder (3-42) and the returning Andre Russell (2-4) finished the decimation work.
Pakistan were expelled in 21.4 overs for their most minimal World Cup aggregate since an irrelevant 74 against England at Adelaide in 1992, the year Imran Khan's group proceeded to lift their lone 50-overs crown.
