Pakistan Beats West Indies to End 8-Match Overseas Losing Streak in Test Matches

Shafique’s 160 and Sajid Khan’s four wickets left West Indies 103/6 and Pakistan 60 runs ahead in the second innings, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, Pakistan moved toward a series-leveling victory in the second Test in Trinidad, reducing the West Indies to 103/6 after Abdullah Shafique's unbeaten 160 anchored a first-innings total of 387.
  • Shafique's 160 marked the first time a Pakistan batter scored more than 150 in the Caribbean since Majid Khan's 167 in 1977, as the team sought to square the series after losing the opening Test by 90 runs.
  • Spinner Sajid Khan dismantled the West Indies top order with four wickets, while Jomel Warrican earlier claimed 6/112 for the hosts and Brandon King remained sidelined with back spasms.
  • West Indies bowling coach Ravi Rampaul acknowledged the hosts face a difficult position, stating, "If we can somehow push the lead to 150 we would have a chance," with the visitors holding just a 60-run advantage.
  • Play continues on Wednesday as the West Indies attempt to rebuild on a deteriorating pitch to set a competitive target and keep the series-deciding contest alive heading into the penultimate day.
