The second women's T20I between West Indies and Pakistan in Antigua  was shrouded in controversy after two of the home side's players collapsed on the field, in separate incidents. Chinelle Henry and Chedean Nation were taken to hospital, where they were "conscious and stable", according to a CWI spokesperson. The incidents took place during Pakistan's chase. "Chinelle Henry and Chedean Nation were taken to hospital for medical attention," CWI said in a statement. "Both Henry and Nation are conscious and stable at hospital and are being assessed. "West Indies Women brought on two substitutes and the game continued, with the home side eventually declared winners by seven runs on Duckworth-Lewis-Stern after another interruption.

Javeria Khan, the Pakistan captain, wished the pair a quick recovery."The thoughts and prayers of the whole Pakistan team are with Chinelle Henry and Chedean Nation," she said in a statement. "We wish them a quick recovery and are hopeful that we will play against them in our next match on Sunday." Such incidents are tragic and can shake whole dressing rooms. Hats off to the West Indies that they turned up and completed the match despite the grave incident. "Speaking about the match, Windies scored 125/6 after batting first. Wicket-keeper Kycia Knight top-scored for the hosts with 30 from 20 balls. Fatima Sana was the pick of the bowlers for Pakistan and returned with figures of 2/18 in her four overs. While chasing, Pakistan could only score 103/6 in 18 overs. Nida Dar scored 29 from 39 balls. There were five run-outs in the Pakistani innings out of six players dismissed. West Indies women have already sealed the series, with another T20I to play. The third and final T20I will be played on July 4
