Second World Series final today

Injury Windies’ worry
MELBOURNE. Jan 19: West Indies cricket captain Courtney Walsh is concerned about his injury-ravaged side's batting
slump and said he was looking for an improved performance in the second limited-over World Series final on Monday, reports AP.
The West Indies suffered batting collapses in their last two limited-over fixtures against Pakistan, losing 8 wickets for 2
in totaling 181 last week and 7 wickets for 24 in struggling to 179-9 on Saturday at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
The West Indies slumped from 99-0 to 123-7 Saturday on their way to a four-wicket loss in the opening match of the best-of-three series. If the West
Indies win on Monday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the third and deciding match would be played Wednesday, also in Melbourne.
Walsh pointed out the West Indies batting woes when he was asked whether he was worried the team was losing momentum in the lead-up to next week's fourth Test against Australia in Adelaide.
"Obviously we're hoping the momentum is maintained but we've had two bad games in terms of batting and it is a cause for concern." Walsh said Sunday.
"It's not something you want to repeat itself because if we bat this way again in Melbourne, we are going to have a hard time winning the finals.
"But I'm not really looking as far as Adelaide right now. I'm looking for a much more improved performance in Melbourne and hoping the guys put their head down and we get the total we should be getting because we play eight batsmen.
"Adelaide is very very important but this one is also very important, so I want to try and get it right for this one and carry the momentum over to Adelaide."
He said key paceman Curtly Ambrose and batsmen Carl Hooper and Adrian Griffith were struggling for fitness and was concerned at the amount of injuries his team was suffering throughout the tour.
Ambrose, who felt a twinge in his groin during Saturday's {(ame. would be given until the ast minute to prove his fitness for Monday. Pakistan coach Mushtaq Mohammad said
some of his players had aches and pains but everyone was available for selection.
Captain and fast bowler Wasim Akram was adamant he would be fit for the game despite being bothered by a tight hamstring.
The West Indies will be the one who will be defensive." he said. "We will be attacking, so 1 believe we have a good chance."
Mushtaq said the dazzling batting of young all-rounder Shahid Afridi on Saturday
would make the Pakistan selectors' task more difficult with Aamir Sohail available again Monday after serving a one-game suspension.
Afridi belted 53 off 54 balls and returned career-best international figures of 3-33 in Saturday’s victory.
