The West Indies captain, Kraigg Brathwaite, showcased his usual grit and positivity in the second innings against Pakistan in the 2nd Test at Multan Cricket Stadium. Brathwaite, known for his calculated aggression, attempted to charge down the track in the 23rd over, but it led to his downfall.

Facing Noman Ali’s sharp turner, Brathwaite misjudged the ball's movement and swung across the line. He missed, and Mohammad Rizwan swiftly completed a clean stumping. The TV umpire confirmed the dismissal, and Brathwaite had to walk back to the pavilion after a well-made 52 off 74 balls. 

Noman Ali’s breakthrough was crucial for Pakistan, breaking a steady partnership that had kept them under pressure.

Spinners Dominate On Day 1 In Multan Test 

The opening day of the Test was a spinner's delight. Pakistan bowled out the West Indies for 163, thanks to Noman Ali's brilliant six-wicket haul, including a hat-trick. The visitors were reduced to 7/38 at one point, but lower-order contributions from Gudakesh Motie (maiden Test fifty), Kemar Roach (25), and Jomel Warrican (36 not out) helped push the total to a semi-respectable score.

In response, Pakistan's top order crumbled, with Kemar Roach striking twice. Mohammad Rizwan (49) and Saud Shakeel’s partnership of 68 runs briefly steadied Pakistan, but Warrican’s double strike, including Rizwan's dismissal, kept the game in balance. The West Indies bowled Pakistan out for 154, securing a slender 9-run lead.

At the time of writing, the West Indies are fighting hard at 110/3, aiming to extend their advantage and set up a thrilling contest.
