Hooper hit 112 from just 127 balls

Ridley Jacobs was 13 not out at the end, having fed the strike to his captain well in a stand worth 45 in the final five overs.

Pakistan had begun making inroads in the third ball of the innings, when Daren Ganga was caught behind off Waqar Younis.

And Gayle perished in cavalier fashion, caught by Younis Khan slip after cracking four boundaries in a 17-ball innings worth 19.

Just 10 runs were added before newcomer Runako Morton was trapped lbw by Waqar for three.

And Wavel Hinds managed 22 before being beaten by the pace of Mohammed Sami, edging for Younis Khan's second catch.

Rash shots

Pakistan's first three wickets fell in the first four overs, Shahid Afridi caught by Morton off Pedro Collins for five, and Naved Latif three balls later, lbw to Merv Dillon.

Younis Khan's dismissal, edging to Hooper at slip, saw Pakistan plunge to 18 for three.

Shoaib Malik and Yousuf Youhana looked like affecting a revival, but Youhana offered a return catch to Dillon for 20.

Abdur Razzaq was run out, despite having stuck around for 40 balls in making 10, and the West Indies' spinners finished the job as shots became increasingly rash.

Hooper bowled Shoaib Malik for 37 and Gayle recording figures of four for 19, clean-bowling Rashid Latif for 37 to bring an end nine overs early.
