''Draw a series 1 by 1 of two test matches between Pakistan and West Indies''
There were several thrilling and tough cricket matches throughout the two-test series between Pakistan and the West Indies. Pakistan dominated the first test, winning handily thanks to outstanding bowling and top-order batting efforts. Particularly in the first innings, the West Indies found it difficult to match Pakistan's steadiness. However, the West Indies displayed better form in the second test, which was more evenly contested. Even though they put up a great fight, Pakistan's well-rounded squad won thanks to outstanding performances from their bowlers and hitters.
The West Indies ended their two-match series 1-1, with spinner Jomel Warrican taking five wickets as they won a Test match in Pakistan for the first time in almost 35 years.
On Monday, the visitors won by 120 runs to conclude the second Test match in Multan.
Pakistan won the first Test by a margin of 127 runs, although Warrican, the player of the match, gave the hosts a taste of their own medicine on sharply spinning fields with nine wickets in the match and 19 in the series.
After going winless on their travels in 1997 and 2006, the West Indies last triumphed in a Test match in Pakistan in November 1990 at Faisalabad.
With the score at 76-4 and chasing 254, Saud Shakeel had Pakistan's best opportunity to win, but Kevin Sinclair put the left-hander in the slip for 13 to severely hurt the home team's dwindling hopes.
Pakistan was bowled out for 133, with Babar Azam scoring the highest at 31 and Mohammad Rizwan at 25.
Pakistan was down to 76-6 when Warrican bowled Nightwatchman Kashif Ali with a straighter one for one.
Before Warrican bowled Rizwan and dismissed Salman Leg before for 15, the tourists were within two wickets of win after Rizwan and Salman Ali Agha combined 39 for the seventh wicket.
