Brian Lara Cricket Academy: West Indies head coach Darren Sammy has shown confidence in his side, saying that he could see 'the light coming through' as they gear up to face Pakistan in the two-match home test series starting from Saturday.
West Indies, who are placed at eighth position in the World Test Championship points table, are coming to the contest after registering a 1-0 series win against Sri Lanka. According to the former player, the win gives hope of a revival to the Caribbean side, who are looking to move up the table with a win against the ninth-placed Pakistan.
"We could see some light coming through, especially with the Sri Lanka series. Now we have Pakistan. Looking at the world rankings, we're probably four or five points behind getting into the top six of the table [they are eighth and just three points from getting to No. 6]. The team knows what we're looking to achieve. And each player understands the role that they're playing in us achieving that," he said ahead of the match as quoted by Cricinfo.
