**BRIDGETOWN, Barbados** – Pakistan secured a thrilling victory over the West Indies in a closely fought four-innings Test match. Pakistan, after posting a first-innings total of 230 runs, thanks largely to Saud Shakeel’s 84 and Mohammad Rizwan’s 71, bowled out the West Indies for a meager 137. Jayden Seales (22) and Jomel Warrican (31) were the top scorers for the West Indies, while Noman Ali (5/39) and Sajid Khan (4/65) spearheaded Pakistan’s bowling attack.
Pakistan’s second innings yielded 157 runs, with Shan Masood contributing 52. However, Jomel Warrican’s impressive 7-32 decimated the Pakistan batting line-up. The West Indies, needing 251 for victory, were bowled out for 123 in their second innings. Alick Athanaze fought valiantly, scoring a defiant 55, but Sajid Khan (5/50) and Abrar Ahmed (4/27) proved too much for the West Indies batting order. The win was secured by Pakistan who were able to capitalize on the West Indies’ shaky batting throughout the match.
