Justin Greaves' 64 Not Out Steers West Indies to Safety
In a cricket match in Trinidad, the West Indies were playing Pakistan.
The West Indies were in trouble because rain stopped play early.
A player named Justin Greaves stayed at the bat and scored 64 runs without getting out.
This helped his team finish the day with 239 runs and 5 wickets lost.
The West Indies captain, Brandon King, said the team’s partnerships were good and hoped they would score more runs tomorrow.
Pakistan had some injuries and left out a good bowler, which made it harder for them to win.
The match was played at Queen’s Park Oval and the rain made the game shorter than usual.
