its is saying for many years that pakistan is the unpredictable team when ever it is there day they don"t compromise with the opposition that is what this world cup has also the best answer of it just a single lost match in group matches against new zealand while all the others were in the favour of them but the most moral boost win against aussies who did"nt lose any worldcup matches for 34 games but pakistan played against them and win against them in style how ever present australlian team is not as that class to compare with the last time champion australian team but win against the champion always boost your morale high
how ever talk about pakistan and west indies match of quarter final
both are really unpredictable teams w indies also played good cricket in this world cup although
they did not win against the any high class opposition but they had the close matches againstt the england and india and they had some good individual performance as well
they are also like pakistan when ever that is your day they always crashed the opposition
TEAM NEWS FOR PAKISTAN:
akhtar who also announced his retirement said that this world cup and the last match for pakistan cricket team of this world cup will be the last of his carrer it is not looking like that he will be selecte in the quarter final against the w indies becuse afridi as early said after win against australia said he dont want to break the winning combination
but as to talk about 32 years old off spinner saeed ajmal he has the bright chance to select in the match against w indies but a/c to former left arm spinner iqbal qasim he said off spinner not to give the chance against the crunch match but the w indies team have the 5 left top order batsmen so he may get the chance for the match .
team for pak : m hafeez , k akmal , asad shafiq, misbah , u akmal , afridi , younis khan , razzaq , ajmal, wahab , gul team a/c to sources they have the depth in batting but the problem is that they are not performing as well as they have to be but bowling is going good...
TEAM NEWS FOR WEST INDIES :
andre rusell is the good right arm fast bowler addition in the team but ravi rampul who got 5 wkts against the match against the match against indians may drop form the crunch match and KEMAR roach speed star will make his come back and chris gayle who also dropped from the squad will replace the another left hander edwards who also replaced him gainst indians but no news for chander paul because the other players are the regular members and part of team almost for every match keiron pollard fire power has to do lot in match aginst pakistan ..
so both are quite balanced team ...if see at their record in 2011 world cup matches

Even record in recent times
In recent head-to-head clashes in global tournaments, the teams have been evenly matched. Pakistan won by five wickets in their most recent meeting in the Champions Trophy while West Indies won comfortably in their last World Cup meeting in the opening game of the 2007 World Cup. West Indies have an 8-3 record in global tournments against Pakistan. Since 1999 though, both teams have won two games each when they have met in the World Cup and Champions Trophy. Overall, in matches played since 2000, Pakistan enjoy a much better record.

Mirpur, the venue for the match, has generally been a good batting wicket, but stats here are distorted because of the two batting failures by Bangladesh, when they were bowled out for 58 and 78 against West Indies and South Africa respectively. In recent times teams chasing have done much better in Mirpur, but in a crucial knockout game batting first might be the better option.
POWER PLAY :
the batting power play is the big problem over recent times because did not judged the correct time at what time they have to take the power play but the in batting power play pakistan run rate close to 9.81 but the west indies unable too perform as good as they perform in mandatory power play because of continous wicket losses of middle order ..
BATTING IS THE BIG CONCERN FOR BOTH OF THE TEAM DEVON SMITH IS THE ONLY PLAYER TO MADE THE POSTION FOR HIM IN 20 MAN RANKING IN THIS WORLD CUP FOR BATTIN BUT NO PAKISTANI PLAYERS ARE THERE UMAR AKMAL WITH 211 RUNS IS THE HIGHEST RUN SCORER FOR PAKISTANIS
SHAHID AFRIDI WITH 17 IS THE HIGHEST WICKET TAKER IN 2011 WORLD CUP AND umar gul and abdur razzaq also found the bowling form so lets see the result what will be it.
