This is Kimo Oroch and I listen to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast.
Machel St Patrick Hewitt 0:45
Yes people, so you join me at the end of the 30-20 eye between West Indies and Pakistan. Pakistan take the W by 13 runs and with it take the series 2-1. You can't really say that Pakistan didn't deserve it.

How did Pakistan secure their victory in the final match?

Machel St Patrick Hewitt 0:57
On the night they put up 190. Now, let's dissect that. Should they have made 189, we could dissect different parts of the West Indies bowling on the night. I still go back and look at that final over that Shamar Joseph bowled. He gave up 19 runs in that final over and it always felt like at the time that that 19 run over might come back to bite the West Indies later on in the match.

What were the critical moments that defined the match outcome?

Machel St Patrick Hewitt 1:22
As it was, West Indies lost by 13 and Samuel Badry joins me. In fact, before I continue, Samuel Badry, where was this game won and lost today?
Samuel Badree 1:29
I think 189 was going to always going to be a tall order. So maybe about 15 runs over pies where Pakistan ended. And then with about just a few overs in the middle where they sort of slowed down and the intensity wasn't there.

Why was the West Indies' bowling performance a concern?

Samuel Badree 1:42
And then in the end, it was a little bit too much in that final few overs. So here and there, incremental improvements, the one in percenters. And that's what we continue to miss. But you were begging for a victory in the second T20.
Machel St Patrick Hewitt 1:56
I got a W. I got one. You got one? Are you satisfied? Are you happy? I'm satisfied. I said, give me one victory and we got it.

What strategic decisions impacted the West Indies' batting chase?

Machel St Patrick Hewitt 2:03
So I'm actually fine. Mr. Badri. Hopefully you picked up Samuel Badri on my mic there when this comes through. But as Samuel says, that's basically where I see it. Pakistan made way too many runs for me. Whilst it was an easier pitch to bat on, it wasn't a 189 pitch. And like I say, it's not about digging out Shamar Joseph. But that final over took them just above where they needed to be. I was with the Backwood Point guys just before the final over. And they said to me...

How did injuries affect the West Indies team composition?

Machel St Patrick Hewitt 2:31
I think Pakistan is going to make about 175, 176 here. And I said, I think Shamar Joseph is going to get licked down. And he did get licked down. And like say that 189 or chasing 190 proved insurmountable. That said, When the West Indies were batting in reply, they were 90 for one at the halfway stage. Now, Pakistan were 82 for none at the halfway stage. So let's get this right. At the halfway stage, West Indies were in front. Now, where everyone is quibbling is around the 13 over mark.

What role did Nicholas Pooran's absence play in the series?

Machel St Patrick Hewitt 3:03
Now, with seven overs to go, West Indies needed 80 runs. so 80 runs of 42 balls and two had just got out i think athenae's got out and it was 110 for three and a lot of people post match and i call this hindsight analysis a lot of people post match are saying why was roston chase sent in shay hope has spoken uh in the post match presser i asked him a few questions you can catch that when cricket west indies media put it out but shay hope spoke at the press and said well roston came out at that point because roston is one of the better players of spin Pakistan still had a significant amount of spin-overs to bowl. So Roston was sent. Now we can quibble and we can argue about should Jason have come, should Romario Sheppard have come, but chasing 80 runs with 42 balls to goal, to me,
Machel St Patrick Hewitt 3:47
doesn't scream, you have to have a power hitter at that stage. Where Rostan Chase shouldn't be looked at as some kind of weak person who can't hit the ball long. In the first, which was it? It was one of the T20s against Australia. Did he not score 60 off 32?

What are the future implications for West Indies cricket after this series?

Machel St Patrick Hewitt 4:03
So what... I don't like it when people try and say, this player can't do that, but we have evidence of them being able to do it. Can Roston do that regularly? Well, okay, we can question that, but let's not pretend that he can't score quickly, right? Obviously, there was that key over from Harris Ralph, bowled that over where Roston could barely put bat on ball, and then he got a streaky four, I think, swished at three and missed it and then at the end of that over he was 15 off 13 and he retired out jason holder came out now again some people have quibbled to me and said why did jason holder come out at that point but jason holder had just won us the match in the like yesterday so why would jason holder not come out we can quibble about whether it should be mario shepherd but there was a clear reason why jason holder came out now obviously he got out to mock him
