West Indies vs Pakistan, 3rd ODI: Five best performers

3) Lendl Simmons

Walking in at 50/3 after 16 overs, Simmons had to play out of his skin to take the West Indies closer to victory. That they had already lost Gayle, Charles and Darren Bravo, and that he was going to have to play most of the remaining overs of Saeed Ajmal was definitely not going to help.

But Simmons managed to play an innings that not only kept up with the required run rate, but also provided the much-required calm in the middle of the innings. With this score of 75(86), we should see a lot of him in the times to come.
