Simmons Praises West Indian Bowlers But Wants Batters To 'Sit Down And Work Out How To Get To The Scores'

By IANS News August 25, 2021 • 10:50 AM View: 1096

West Indies cricket team coach Phil Simmons conceded on Wednesday that his side wasn't being able to "read the situation" of the game well even as he said that the batters were not lacking in application or technique following their 109-run defeat to Pakistan in the second Test at Sabina Park.

Thanks to Pakistan pacer Shaheen Afridi's 10-wicket match haul, the tourists decimated the West Indies for 219 on the final day to notch up a series-leveling win in the two-match series. West Indies had won the opening Test.
