Champions trophy: WI beat Pakistan by 2 wickets

London: West Indies beat Pakistan by two wicket in a low-scoring Group B encounter to start their Champions Trophy campaign on a perfect note at the Kennington Oval on Friday.
Opting to ball, paceman Kemar Roach and spinner Sunil Narine shared six wickets between them to help West Indies bowl out Pakistan for a paltry 170 in 48 overs.

While chasing, West Indies made a heavy weather of the target before scampering home with two wickets in hand in 40.4 overs.
West Indies lost two wickets — Johnson Charles and Darren Bravo — early during their paltry chase of 171.

Gayle seemed to have been bogged down by the impressive Pakistani bowling attack as he scored his 39 off 47 balls balls with the help of four boundaries and one six.

Samuels too did not look convincing and scored his 30 runs off 57 balls and struck three fours in the process.
