Multan, 27 January 2025: West Indies’ spin trio of Jomel Warrican, Kevin Sinclair and Gudakesh Motie took all ten wickets in the second innings to hand West Indies a 120-run series-levelling win in the second Multan Test on Monday.
Warrican stood out with figures of 16-4-27-5 as Pakistan were dismissed for 133 in 44 overs chasing 254 runs.
Pakistan resumed day three from their overnight score of 76-4 and could only face 20 overs before losing the remaining six wickets. At the start of the day, Saud Shakeel (13, 30b, 1x4) and nightwatchman Kashif Ali fell in a space of five balls to Sinclair and Warrican, respectively.
With Pakistan reeling at 76-6, Mohammad Rizwan (25, 62b, 1x4) and Salman Ali Agha (15, 33b) came together to stitch a 39-run stand off 77 balls, which was broken by Warrican as he pinned Salman leg before in the 38th over.
The remaining three wickets came in the next six overs as West Indies romped to their fifth Test match victory on Pakistan soil. Apart from Warrican, Sinclair contributed with 3-61, while Motie dismissed two batters for 35 runs in his 11 overs.
