In a stunning reversal of fortunes, the West Indies spun a web of magic in Multan to clinch a historic 120-run victory over Pakistan, levelling the two-Test series 1-1 and scripting only their fifth Test win on Pakistani soil. Led by left-arm maestro Jomel Warrican, Kevin Sinclair and Gudakesh Motie's Caribbean spin trio dismantled the hosts’ batting lineup in a dramatic Day 3 collapse. 

Chasing 254, Pakistan crumbled to 133 all out, their hopes evaporating in a haze of ill-timed shots and relentless pressure. This triumph marks a historic moment for West Indies cricket as Pakistan's spin-duo Sajid Khan and Noman Ali's efforts go down the drain because of the batting falter.

Here's a look at how it panned out in Multan on Day 3 of the West Indies vs Pakistan Test:

WI vs PAK Highlights: Early Collapse Shatters Pakistan’s Hopes

Pakistan resumed Day 3 at 76/4, needing 178 more runs, but disaster struck early. Saud Shakeel (13) fell in the second over, trapped LBW by Kevin Sinclair, while nightwatchman Kashif Ali (1) was clean-bowled by Jomel Warrican, leaving the hosts reeling at 76/6. 

The twin blows inside the first few minutes exposed Pakistan’s fragile lower order, extinguishing any realistic chance of a fightback.

WI vs PAK Highlights: Rizwan And Salman’s Brief Resistance Ends in Vain

Mohammad Rizwan (25 off 62) and Agha Salman (15 off 33) staged a gritty 39-run stand, frustrating West Indies’ bowlers for 13 overs. However, Warrican’s relentless accuracy broke the partnership.

Warrican bamboozled the Pakistan middle order by dismissing Salman LBW and later Rizwan with a sharp delivery that clattered the stumps. Their dismissals at 115/7 and 122/8 sealed Pakistan’s fate, as the tail offered little resistance.

WI vs PAK Highlights: Jomel Warrican’s Masterclass Caps Windies’ Dominance

Left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican orchestrated Pakistan’s collapse, claiming 9 wickets across innings and also claiming his five-wicket haul in the 2nd Test as well. He ripped through the middle order and mopped up the tail, including the crucial wicket of Nauman Ali who scored 6 runs.


Therefore, West Indies’ bowlers, led by Warrican’s precision and Sinclair’s three scalps, bundled Pakistan out for 133, securing a historic 120-run victory which also marks their first Test win in Pakistan after 35 long years.
