A sensational all-round effort from West Indies’ battery of fast bowlers swept aside a sorry Pakistan batting line-up in a little over a session, securing a crushing 90-run win in Tarouba to take a 1-0 lead in the two-match series. Jayden Seales’ five-wicket haul led the way as his fast bowling compatriots backed him up, skittling Pakistan out for 120 in just over 40 overs.
Chasing 211, Pakistan were hopelessly outgunned from the outset, losing three wickets before lunch, with Babar Azam limply hanging on until he swiftly, and inevitably, ran out of partners at the other end. It inflicts a record-extending eighth consecutive away Test defeat for Pakistan, and ensures West Indies cannot lose the series.
Summarised scores:
West Indies 311 (Hope 92, Hodge 84, Ali 4-50) and 181 (Joseph 38, Chanderpaul 35, Abbas 5-22) beat Pakistan 282 (Masood 109, Imam 63, Greaves 5-27) and 120 (Babar 58*, Seales 5-18) by 90 runs
