Waqar Younis vs West Indies 1990-91


Its congratulation and celebration for speedster Waqar Younis, who is an amazing burst of speed and venom, trounced the West Indies when they visited the Pakistan in 1990-91. They played three Test series against the Pakistan. In fact this tour saw the coming of the age of Waqar Younis as a pace bowler of unmatched speed and witnessed one of his most lethal spells ever.
This memorable picture depicts a dismissal which even caught the imagination of advertisers, for its purity and effectiveness. Though, the West Indies batsman Gus Logie would have some other, not very much pleasant reasons for remembering it. That having been bowled by a Waqar Younis thunderbolt for an ignominious duck.
Gus Logie was famous for their athletic fielding and quick runs getting. Both teams fought hard but series were drawn 1-1. West Indies cricket team captained by opening batsman Desmond Haynes, while Pakistan Captain was Imran Khan. Furthermore, Pakistan outplayed West Indies in ODI matches with a 3-0 whitewashed. The other players in this picture are off spinner Akram Raza, patting Waqar’s back and wicket keeper Saleem Yousaf high fiving him.
