Their highest score came from Bardan Chalise who made a patient 27 from 89 balls while Prem Chaudhary weighed in with 25.Zimbabwe beat Namibia by 35 runs to win the first Plate semi-final on Monday.. Carl Hooper, the West Indies captain, wants his side to develop a killer instinct as they bid to re-establish themselves amongst the world's ?te. And when better to begin than in the second Test against Pakistan, which starts here today.The West Indies are looking to square the series after a 170-run loss in the first Test, their 22nd defeat in their last 26 away Tests. Surprisingly, given the comprehensiveness of the reverse, the tourists looked competitive for large periods of the first Test. But two batting collapses – from 352 for 5 to 366 all out in the first innings and from 115 for 1 to 171 all out second time around – cost them dearly."It's the little things and little moments we're allowing to slip from us," Hooper said. "We're just not grasping the opportunity and pressing home the advantage and it's costing us."The West Indies also allowed Pakistan to recover from 94 for 4 on the first day to reach an imposing 493. One of the key moments that Hooper was referring to was a dropped catch that allowed Rashid Latif, then on 28, to top-score with 150 and share in a stand of 204 with Yousuf Youhana."These are the little things about Test cricket," Hooper said.

"When you're playing against good sides, you've got to drive home the advantage when you get it or they're going to get out of it and put you under pressure."Obviously we want to rectify this so we can be competitive and not only draw games but look to win games."The West Indies' hopes of levelling the two-Test series have been hit by the anticipated loss of Sherwin Campbell and Marlon Samuels for the rest of the tour. Samuels needs corrective knee surgery after an old injury flared up and will be out for up to seven weeks, while Campbell has a broken little finger and is facing 10 days on the sidelines.Regardless of this, Hooper is confident his side can get back on level terms with Pakistan. "Even though we've lost a few Test matches in a row, we're not playing really, really poorly," he added. "I still think we can beat Pakistan."However, Waqar Younis, seeking his sixth consecutive win as captain of Pakistan, was not convinced about the threat posed by the West Indies. Waqar believes that his new-ball partner Shoaib Akhtar – man of the match in the first Test – is likely to return a more than impressive performance. Shoaib claimed a career-best 5 for 24 as the tourists collapsed for 171 in their second innings, losing their last seven wickets for 25 runs.

"Shoaib's confidence will come back even more now that he is bowling again and has had this success," Waqar added "He will be even more devastating.". Les Ferdinand is prepared to risk missing out on the Worthington Cup final in a bid to play for Tottenham against Leicester in Saturday's Premiership match at White Hart Lane. The signs are that he will adopt the same safety-first policy this weekend.However, 14-goal Ferdinand, who has missed the last four matches with a neck injury, is keen to play. "The situation with the yellow cards is not playing on my mind," he said. "If the manager sees fit to play me, then that is what I will do. I would keep my fingers crossed that I wouldn't get booked, but if it happens and I miss the final, then that is how it is meant to be."I am not thinking that I don't want to play because I want to save myself for the final. I've been out for a few weeks now with a whiplash problem and I need a game under my belt.

I would like to come back into the team on Saturday."But I am sure the manager will review his options and if he thinks it is best for me to sit out Saturday's game then that is what I will have to do."Hoddle has been given a boost because the Argentinian defender Mauricio Taricco has had one of his four yellow cards wiped from the record books. As he no longer risks being suspended for the final, he played in Tuiesday's FA Cup victory over Bolton. Spurs successfully argued that Taricco had been the victim of mistaken identity when the referee, Steve Bennett, booked him after a tackle on Matt Jansen by Perry during the New Year's Day encounter with Blackburn.Darren Anderton concurs with Hoddle's assessment that he is at the peak of his career, revealing how he has matured as he has got older. Anderton is earning rave reviews this season and after scoring one goal and making another two last night in front of the England coach, Sven Goran Eriksson, his international stock has risen again. "Darren is playing as well as at any time in his entire career, as well as any midfielder in the country," Hoddle said.
