Pakistan scored 160 and Zimbabwe scored 289 against the West Indies.

Point to ponder is that our next match on 1st March is vs Zimbabwe, who scored 80% more runs than us, against the same bowling.

So, Pakistan may play any combination of 11 players but must repeat must, play with 5 regular bowlers against the Zimbabwe:

Win Back Your Boss’s Trust by Showing Integrity

Can you truly regain your boss’s trust once you’ve lost it? In most cases, the answer is yes. Trust is often broken if your integrity has been called into question. There are two ways to rebuild trust and show integrity. The first takes time: repeatedly demonstrate an ability to work hard and delay selfish gratification. For example, work through lunch or take on onerous or tedious tasks that need to get done, but no one else wants to do. The second is quicker: show a willingness to sacrifice to benefit others when the stakes are high. This could include putting off a planned vacation to meet a major need or goal of your boss’s. You have to be willing to do what others might not, so you won’t be seen as prioritizing your own needs over those of the company.
