Bravo the driving force

THE SECOND day/night Test was a nightmare for West Indies over the first two days, but it was a little brighter yesterday.

After Pakistan piled up 579 for three declared, West Indies didn’t capitulate and battled to 315 for six at stumps on the third day at the Dubai International Stadium.

Darren Bravo anchored most of the reply in a resolute 87 that stretched more than six hours. He and Marlon Samuels, who made 76, featured in a third-wicket partnership of 113, but the Caribbean side will still face a battle in trying to avoid defeat over the last two days.
