ABU DHABI, Nov 14: West Indies bowled a disciplined line and length to dismiss Pakistan for 232 in the second One-day International at Sheikh Zayed Stadium here on Friday.
Fast bowler Jerome Taylor overcame a final over glitch in the previous match to take 3-38 and was ably supported by Daren Powell 3-50 as they never allowed the Pakistani batsmen liberty on a docile pitch.
Pakistan, who had collapsed to seven for two in the third over, were indebted to Misbah-ul-Haq (52), Kamran Akmal (45) and Younis Khan (34) but none could play long enough for a big total after Pakistan won the toss and batted.
Younis and Misbah staged a little recovery through a 51-run third wicket stand before both fell to injudicious shots. Younis played across to Daren Powell, while Misbah miscued a drive off spinner Nikita Miller and was caught in the deep.
Younis hit five boundaries while Haq managed just one during his slow 86-ball knock.
Pakistan were further jolted when captain Shoaib Malik was run out for 10.
It was left to Kamran, who hit Taylor for two sixes in the 50th over to give Pakistan an unexpected win in the first match on Wednesday, and Shahid Afridi (28) to give some respectability to the innings.
They shared a rapid 52-run stand and threatened for more but West Indies hit back, dismissing both in the space of just two runs.
Sohail Tanvir (26) used the long handle effectively, hitting Taylor for three boundaries in the 48th over before he was run out.
Pakistan lead the three-match series 1-0.
