Their hitting is mostly unverified at Examination amount and also rapid bowler Anrich Nortje being not likely to come back coming from injury for the upcoming collection are actually problems but with high quality quicks like Kagiso Rabada still in the line-up they can create damage. Pakistan-- 8th, 19.05% and West Indies-- 9th, 18.52% For Pakistan and West Indies, the focus is actually a lot more on saving honor in home collection versus England and also Bangladesh specifically as they run out the competing Lords.
