West Indies spin web to bundle Pakistan for 230 in first Test

MULTAN: Kevin Sinclair and Jomel Warrican spun a web in the morning session to help West Indies bundle Pakistan to 230 on Day 2 of the first Test here on Saturday.

Saud Shakeel (56*) and Mohammad Rizwan (51*) started the second day for Pakistan with the scoreboard reading 143-4.

They managed to add 44 runs to the total before Shakeel fell prey to Sinclair after playing a gutsy 84-run knock, which featured six boundaries.

New batter Salman Ali Agha (2) got castled by Warrican, followed by Noman Ali and Rizwan’s wickets in the next over, leaving Pakistan struggling at 200-8.

Rizwan played a grinding innings of 71 runs from 133 balls with the help of nine boundaries.

Sajid Khan then played an 18-run cameo, with one four and one fix, to take Pakistan’s total to 230 before he was bowled by Warrican to wrap the home team’s innings.

Warrican and Jayden Seales took three wickets each for West Indies, while Sinclair bagged two and Gudakesh Motie managed one.

Pakistan Playing XI: Shan Masood (c), Muhammad Huraira, Babar Azam, Kamran Ghulam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan, Salman Ali Agha, Sajid Khan, Noman Ali, Abrar Ahmed, Khurram Shahzad.

West Indies Playing XI: Kraigg Brathwaite (c), Mikyle Louis, Keacy Carty, Kavem Hodge, Alick Athanaze, Justin Greaves, Tevin Imlach (wk), Gudakesh Motie, Kevin Sinclair, Jomel Warrican, Jayden Seales
