ROSEAU – West Indies head coach Stuart Law believes the regional side can take heart from the just-ended series against Pakistan, despite losing the three-match rubber, 2-1, in heartbreaking fashion on Sunday’s final day at Windsor Park.
The Australian, who was overseeing his first Test series since taking up his post last February, said the batting of Roston Chase and the wholehearted effort displayed by the fast bowlers on flat tracks, was evidence enough to suggest the Windies were heading in the right direction.
“We can take plenty of positives…. We changed the way we wanted to go about our preparation and we wanted to change our culture and the boys really responded well to that… It was pretty tough on pretty unresponsive surface but everyone stuck their hands up again,” Law told reporters on Monday.
He added: “Our bowlers were outstanding. Shannon Gabriel led the attack brilliantly in the series. Alzarri Joseph, a young man in his first proper series, bowled exceptionally well. Jason Holder is a standout young man and he led the team with great distinction and from the front.” (CMC/EZS)
