PLAYER OF THE SERIES
Jomel Warrican

The two captains come onto the stage and share the trophy. Pakistan started heavy favourites, but the visitors showed pluck and they did reveal some weaknesses of the Pakistani batters against spin. It was another spin-loaded series with both matches getting over well inside 3 days. The #WTC25 cycle comes to an end for both teams with this Test and they'll look to start afresh in the coming months. The focus will now shift to the Champions Trophy for the hosts while West Indies go back and start their preparations for a new season. We've had plenty of fun bringing you this series from Multan, but there's a lot of franchise cricket going on. Switch tabs and join us for the BBL final which will start soon. For now, cheers and bye

If you think this story has a happy ending, you haven’t been paying attention. For years now, Pakistan’s cricket has been in decline, especially with their batting. These scarified pitches and the return of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali helped them paper over the cracks with a couple of wins against England and one against West Indies, but they have been found exposed once again. This time by the innocuous, unheralded spin trio of Kevin Sinclair, Jomel Warrican and Gudakesh Motie. These home defeats no longer seem that surprising, they are merely a case of oppositions recognising the frailties of the Pakistani batting and outwitting them at their own game. It seems like the time for niceties are done in Pakistan cricket, time for some serious inquests as they look back on what has been a debilitating WTC campaign.

Kraigg Brathwaite - Rate it highly (the Test win), we've played for so many years, but we've never won here, so to come over and to win a Test is impressive. There was a ball with everyone's name on this pitch and as such batting with a positive manner was very important. It was a good experience, we'll get better pitches, but if you do score runs on such pitches, the confidence?you can take going ahead is massive. He always says he's one of the best players of spin back home (on Jomel Warrican), they really set-up the game for us (on Motie's batting and the partnerships with the tail in the 1st innings), very happy for him, took 5-wickets and showed his class. he's here to stay. It's been different (on the stay in Pakistan), a good experience, the security is obviously there, the two hotels (we stayed) have been very decent as well.?

Shan Masood - I think the only option left was to bring the fast bowler on and have a crack (on if he could have done anything better on the first day). They batted well, but that's something that we have to learn. We have struggled to get the tail out here, something that we did well in Australia, but we also struggled in South Africa. Even in the game we lost right now, the first day, we were in a position where we wanted to be, just one bad performance, it led to a domino effect, but you can't forget the way we have played right through. We have realised that one extra partnership can have a big effect on games, that's what we want to learn quickly. It's a game of all stakeholders, appreciate the players to be willing to throw themselves into the den without being used to it (on their batting failure). We did win 3 of the 4 Tests on such pitches, we did well on the first session here as well. It's important to see some encouraging signs - when Saud and Rizzy got their fifties, I got a 60-ball fifty in the first Test, Babar contributed as well. We might not get those big hundreds, but you need to be proactive, Brathwaite took the game on with his 50 and that's what we need to be aware of and probably be better going further.

Jomel Warrican | PoTM | PoTS - Speeds were very important, bowling slower was very effective and once I worked it out, it worked to my advantage. I just backed myself, backed my ability to find the boundaries and rotate strike. We were backing ourselves to win the game, we had the belief after having bowled them out for a cheap total in the first innings. Variation in pace, hitting the same length over and over, just bowling consistently in the same area was the key for success.

10:49 Local Time, 05:49 GMT, 11:19 IST: Warrican holds the ball as the players walk away in joy, a moment to cherish for the visitors. West Indies started 2024 with a 1-1 series draw in Australia, they've started 2025 with a 1-1 series draw in Pakistan. For a team that hasn't done well in Test cricket, hopefully this is the start of a new era for West Indian cricket. For Pakistan, they prepared a pitch that was going to suit their spinners, it did succeed, but they were outbowled by their West Indian counterparts?in this Test. It didn't look so when they slipped to 54 for 8 in the first?session of Day 1. But they then started to find heroes - Gudakesh Motie made 55, Kemar Roach made 25 and Jomel Warrican made 36*, taking them to 163 all-out. The trio then came back to rip apart the hosts, bowling them out for?154 and gaining a 9-run first-innings lead. Day 2 started with captain Kraigg Brathwaite showing the way, wasn't always pretty, but his 52 set the tone for the second innings, useful contributions?down the order took them to 244, a total that was substantial on this kind of pitch. Chasing 254, Pakistan needed a good start, but they lost both openers cheaply - Babar Azam, Kamran Ghulam, Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Ali Agha got starts, but there was always a ball with their name on it. Eventually, it was a tame surrender, this time by 120 runs and they end the #2025WTC cycle on a losing note.

43.6

Warrican to Sajid Khan, out Bowled!! The 34-year old jinx has been broken, West Indies have won a Test in Pakistan. It's a moment to savour for them, but they'll hope that this ain't one-off. Was a flatter delivery on off, Sajid pressed forward, stayed leg-side and then tried to dab it onto the off-side, gets an under-edge and the ball bounces onto the stumps. Smiles all-around in the Windies camp and Warrican has finished with five. He started the rout and he has the final say, as he mimics Sajid Khan's thigh-slap celebration. It's 1-1 for everyone concerned - Pakistan, West Indies, Sajid Khan and Jomel Warrican. Sajid Khan b Warrican 7(15)

Warrican to Sajid Khan, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!

43.5

Warrican to Sajid Khan, no run, slower and spinning away a mile, Sajid was backing away on the cut and let it go

43.4

Warrican to Sajid Khan, 2 runs, Sajid comes down the pitch, gets undone by the spin and then slices a thick edge over backward point, comes back for the second run

43.3

Warrican to Sajid Khan, no run, tossed up and drifting away with spin, stayed low and went past Sajid's back-foot poke. Warrican retaliates with a John Cena 'you can't see me' gesture towards the batter as Sajid gives a wry smile back. Just a bit of banter and needle between these two...

43.2

Warrican to Sajid Khan, no run, flighted delivery on middle, punched down to long-on and they still don't take the run

43.1

Warrican to Sajid Khan, no run, Sajid comes down the wicket and inside halves the drive to long-on, doesn't take the single

Abrar Ahmed, right handed bat, comes to the crease

42.6

Motie to Noman Ali, out Caught by Warrican!! Six and OUT for Noman - he looks disappointed, but he didn't have a choice, came down the pitch to a well flighted delivery and drilled the drive once again, this time though it carried comfortably for mid-off - a stomach high catch and Warrican made it look easy. Pakistan are nine down and are sinking in Multan. Noman Ali c Warrican b Motie 6(6) [6s-1]

Motie to Noman Ali, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

42.5

Motie to Noman Ali, SIX, Noman will go down swinging, runs down the pitch, doesn't get too close and then hoists it highj and wide of mid-wicket for a maximum

42.4

Motie to Noman Ali, no run, just short of mid-off, Noman runs down the pitch and then drills it towards mid-off- the fielder gets to the ball on the half-volley

42.3

Motie to Sajid Khan, 1 run, Motie drifts one on the leg-stump line, Sajid was looking to work it onto the on-side, closed the face of the bat and the leading edge rolled wide of cover

42.2

Motie to Sajid Khan, no run, pushed through by Motie - Sajid goes back and defends it to the off-side
