Pakistan seals a rare series triumph

On May 22, by winning the third ODI at St. Lucia Pakistan sealed a rare ‘away’ series victory of their limited-overs international history. It was for the first time that Pakistan have won a bilateral ODI series in West Indies. Pakistan thus became only the second side after South Africa to win all the matches of an ODI (bilateral) rubber played in West Indies. Interestingly, South Africa did so just prior to the start of recent Pakistan-West Indies series when they trounced West Indies by 5-0 scoreline. Now only Australia, Sri Lanka and South Africa remain the only major ODI sides without having a home ODI series whitewash.
