West Indies captain Roston Chase said his team took too long to adapt to the conditions during the second Test against Pakistan. He also admitted that West Indies got their bowling balance wrong.
Pakistan defeated West Indies by eight wickets in the match at Queen's Park Oval. Chase’s comments indicate that the hosts’ assessment of the conditions and team combination did not work as planned. The source does not provide further details about the bowling changes or the specific conditions that influenced the result.
Chase’s admission points to a tactical issue rather than offering an excuse for the defeat. Adapting quickly is important in Test cricket, but one result cannot by itself establish a wider weakness. More evidence would be needed to judge whether the bowling balance was an isolated mistake or part of a continuing problem for West Indies.
