Published in The Saudi Gazette on 15 - 05 - 2011

GEORGETOWN, Guyana: Pakistan needs 219 runs on a difficult pitch to win the 1st Test after dismissing West Indies for 152 Saturday in its second innings.
Off-spinner Saeed Ajmal grabbed his second five-wicket haul of the match at the National Stadium, taking 6-42 and ending with match figures of 11-111.
West Indies started the day at 34-2 and Ajmal quickly ran through the top order.
Veteran Shivnarine Chanderpaul compiled a stubborn and undefeated 36 off 127 balls and shared a 48-run last wicket stand with Devendra Bishoo (24).
