Dubai: West Indian batsman Darren Bravo, who scored a resolute hundred in the first Test against Pakistan, yesterday said his team could have beaten Pakistan after fighting their way in Dubai.
Bravo defied Pakistan's potent bowling attack on a weary fifth day pitch on Monday, scoring 116 which lasted 310 minutes before his wicket saw West Indies lose by 56 runs in the second ever day-night Test played with pink ball.
"I think it was a tremendous effort. The guys really fought throughout the entire Test match even though the first two days in the entire Test match we were totally outplayed," said Bravo.
Brief scores
Pakistan 579-3 dec & 123 beat West Indies 357 & 289 (D Bravo 116, L Johnson 47; M Amir 3-63) by 56 runs
