West Indies v Pakistan 2nd T20I – Team News

• Kieron Pollard – The West Indies captain, not for the first time, had to steady his team with the bat after the top-order failed earlier this week. He will demand better this time.
• Lendl Simmons – The Windies opener retired hurt in the previous match. He’s in doubt for this one. If he doesn’t play, Chris Gayle could be shifted up the order to open.
• Hayden Walsh – The West Indian is one of the best wrist-spinners in the international game at the moment. He could benefit from turning conditions.
• Usman Qadir – Here’s a leg-spinner of good value. Qadir has been potent for Pakistan previously and could be key again.
• Mohammad Wasim – The Pakistan seamer debuted in the series opener and claimed the important wicket of Chris Gayle. He will likely be retained in the XI and take the new ball again.

West Indies v Pakistan 2nd T20I – Betting Tips and Predictions

Here are more free and accurate cricket betting tips. They can help you make stronger decisions. These predictions include attractive odds.

Pick Ali as Pakistan’s Top Bowler

Hasan Ali has been impressive since returning from injury. He took two wickets in the first match of this series and was Pakistan’s top bowler.

He’s a good bet at 4.0 with 1xBet to win this market again. The same Indian betting site has over 100 more events to bet on for this game alone.

Ali made the most of conditions in Bridgetown. He might not enjoy the same pace in Guyana, but can still benefit from a slower track.

Bet on Pollard as West Indies’ Top Batsman

The West Indies have a string of superstars higher up their order, but Pollard consistently has to weigh in with big runs at five or six.

This was the case in the series opener. He’ll hope Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis and others do better and allow him to just finish the innings rather than prop it up.

Pick Pollard as the West Indies’ top batsman at 5.5 with bet365. You can also find him in their interesting batsman match markets.

See him during the IPL 2021 restart later this year, too.

Back Azam as Player of the Match

Alongside Virat Kohli of India and Kane Williamson of New Zealand, Babar Azam is one of the best T20I batsmen in world cricket right now.

He has numerous player of the match awards to his name. 22Bet have Azam priced at 7.5 to land another one.

He didn’t get a chance to bat in the washout. He is good at assessing conditions early and playing accordingly, which he will need to do quickly on a tricky Guyana deck.
