Overview
- Pakistan chased 75 to win by eight wickets in Trinidad, drawing the two‑match series 1‑1 and ending a three‑year wait for a Test win on foreign soil.
- The victory moved Pakistan up to eighth in the World Test Championship standings, leapfrogging the West Indies in the updated table.
- Team management chose an extra specialist spinner over senior pacer Mohammad Abbas after assessing the Queen’s Park Oval surface, and spinners Ali Usman and Sajid Khan took key wickets in the West Indies’ second innings.
- Abdullah Shafique, a late addition to the touring squad, scored an unbeaten century in the first innings and was named Player of the Match.
- Babar Azam finished the chase with consecutive sixes off Jomel Warrican, and West Indies captain Roston Chase conceded his side misread the pitch as both teams now turn their focus to Pakistan’s three‑Test tour of England starting August 19.
