Pakistan endured one of their most dismal batting displays against West Indies, crumbling for just 92 runs in a one-sided contest. The collapse paved the way for a crushing defeat by 202 runs, exposing frailties in their batting order and raising serious questions ahead of upcoming challenges.
Pakistan’s nightmare collapse with five ducks in crushing defeat to West Indies
It was a nightmare for the Pakistan batting lineup during the chase, as Jayden Seales unleashed a storm with the new ball, removing Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafique, and captain Mohammad Rizwan for ducks inside the first four overs, leaving the scoreboard at a disastrous 8 for 3. The misery did not end there Hasan Ali and Abrar Ahmed also departed without troubling the scorers, further deepening the crisis.
Each early dismissal amplified the pressure, forcing the middle order to adopt a cautious yet ineffective approach. Boundaries became a rarity, rotation of strike was minimal and the constant fall of wickets prevented any sort of recovery. Strangled by disciplined West Indies bowling, Pakistan’s innings limped to just 92 runs in 29.2 overs, making it one of their most dismal batting efforts in recent memory. Now the Pakistan must be looking for answers after a horrible performance.
Here’s how fans reacted:
#PakvsWI Pakistan all out for 92 with no less than five batsmen scoring ducks! Humiliating loss. Fittay munh tuada

In men’s ODI history, there have been 16 innings in which three of the top four have fallen for ducks. Seven of them have been by Pakistan. No other team has more than two.

Imagine scoring 5 ducks against a team that hasn’t played the last the champions trophy, last Odi world Cup and is currently ranked 10th at the icc rankings. Well others can only imagine but it’s the reality for the Pakistan Cricket team. Let’s laugh at them hhahahaha

Is this the end of Pakistani cricket, or is there still more downfall left?
How can a team that was once upon time so strong collapse like this 92 all out while chasing a big total, with five ducks in the inning unbelievable.

Shai Hopes leads the charge in West Indies’ strong batting display
West Indies captain Shai Hope produced a batting masterclass on a challenging pitch, crafting an unbeaten 120 off 94 balls to steer his side to a crushing win over Pakistan. Mixing aggression with composure, he struck ten fours and five sixes, expertly countering the tricky bounce and movement that unsettled the opposition. Hope’s knock was the backbone of West Indies’ 294 for 6, built around a vital 110-run stand with Justin Greaves. His ability to rotate strike and punish loose deliveries ensured constant scoreboard pressure. The century not only sealed a historic series win their first against Pakistan at home in 34 years but also moved him to third on the West Indies’ all-time ODI century list reaffirming his stature as a world-class batsman.
