Pakistan win toss and field in second ODI Thursday, December 07, 2006 03:35 [IST]
Faisalabad: Pakistan won the toss and sent the West Indies in to bat in the second one-day international
at Iqbal Stadium here.
The home team was without prolific batsman Mohammad Yousuf,
who was with his pregnant wife in Lahore.
Yousuf accumulated 665 runs in Pakistan's
2-0 win in the three-Test series which preceded the one-day matches.
Left-arm spinner Abdul Rehman was included to make his
international debut for Pakistan.
The tourists had to leave out their ace batsman Shivnarine
Chanderpaul due to a slight knee injury, which made way for emerging opener
Lendl Simmons to make his one-day debut.
The 21-year-old Simmons is the nephew of former opener Phil
Simmons.
The first of the five-match series was washed out due to
rain in Rawalpindi.
