West Indies v Zimbabwe - 1992 World Test Championship - 4th Round - St Vincent
2nd placed West Indies take on last placed Zimbabwe in a competition mismatch at St Vincent in the 4th Round of the World Test Championship.
Zimbabwe's only hope seems a West Indies batting collapse, with bowling definitely being the home team's strength.
Both teams are unchanged from their 3rd round matches.
Pitch: 77 - Very much a ‘home’ pitch prepared for the enjoyment of the fast bowlers and the discomfort of all batsmen. This is a rock hard surface, promising a fast and high bounce. Both runs and wickets are likely to come quickly and expect the top quality pace bowlers to reap a rich harvest.
Day 1 Conditions:
Pitch: 6A - Hard pitch with excessive bounce
Weather: 2 - Hot and sunny
West Indies lineup:
D.L.Haynes, P.V.Simmons, B.C.Lara, R.B.Richardson (c), K.L.T.Arthurton, J.C.Adams, D.Williams (wk), C.E.L.Ambrose, K.C.G.Benjamin, C.A.Walsh, B.P.Patterson
Zimbabwe lineup:
K.J.Arnott, G.W.Flower, A.D.R.Campbell, A.J.Pycroft, D.L.Houghton (c), A.Flower (wk), G.J.Crocker, E.A.Brandes, M.G.Burmester, A.J.Traicos, M.P.Jarvis
Toss: West Indies
West Indies won an important toss, condemning Zimbabwe to bat last on what by Day 4 promises to be an Uneven wicket.
