West Indies win Test in Pakistan for first time in 35 years

Jomel Warrican took five wickets as the West Indies won a test match in Pakistan for the first time in nearly 35 years yesterday.

The West Indies won the second Test in Multan by 120 runs on day three to draw the series 1-1.

Pakistan won the first Test by 127 runs, also in Multan.

Warrican finished with nine wickets in the match – 19 in the series – to give the hosts a taste of their own medicine on spin-friendly pitches.

The last time the West Indies won a test in Pakistan was in Faisalabad in November 1990, having gone winless on their 1997 and 2006 tours.

Resuming on 76-4 and chasing 254, Pakistan’s hopes of victory rested on Saud Shakeel but Kevin Sinclair had the left-hander caught in the slip for 13 to further dent the home team’s fading chances.

Babar Azam top-scored with 31 while Mohammad Rizwan made 25.

PAKISTAN: Shan Masood (capt), Muhammad Hurraira, Babar Azam, Kamran Ghulam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan (wkt), Salman Agha, Noman Ali, Sajid Khan, Kashif Ali, Abrar Ahmed

WEST INDIES: Kraigg Brathwaite (capt), Alick Athanaze, Justin Greaves, Kavem Hodge, Tevin Imlach (wkt), Amir Jangoo, Mikyle Louis, Gudakesh Motie, Kevin Sinclair, Kemar Roach, Jomel Warrican − SuperSport
