Inn Break
A partnership was need of the hour and Shakeel and Rizwan joined hands to end the second session without losing anymore wickets. West Indies ended the session on top but Pakistan came in with lot of intent as both scored plenty of boundaries and reached their respective fifties. Pakistan worked hard to be in this position and will be happy with how things have ended. They'll hope these two continue in the same manner on Day 2 as we don't think anymore play is expected today. And STUMPS it is as well! That is all from today. Join us for the action of Day 2 at 4 am GMT. Half an hour early start. Join us earlier for the build up. Till then, cheers!
The light-meter is out again and the umpires think it's not good enough. The players are walking off the field. Not yet stumps but let's recap what has happened so far. The first session was washed out due to foggy conditions but we got some entertaining cricket thanks to the three-fer from Jayden Seales with the new ball. He was superb with the new ball and on a track which was supporting the spinners dearly, Seales bowled with lot of pace and got it to swing both ways. Pakistan were reduced to 46/4 in the second session.

...DAY 1, SESSION 3...
An entertaining start to the match. On a rank-turner, Pakistan lost three wickets to seamer, Jayden Seales who was just superb in his spell. He pushed hard to bowl a length spell and got three big wickets. West Indies applied spin from other end, Gudakesh Motie bowled throughout the session but he was not at his best. There is a lot of turn on this pitch and if Gudakesh Motie gets his rhythm, he could be a dangerous customer for Pakistan who after losing four wickets, got a much needed partnership in Shakeel and Rizwan. The duo did well to end the session without losing any more wickets and will hope to do the same in the final session. Stay tuned.

Hurraira is all set to make his debut for Pakistan and he’s chosen in front of the experienced Imam. Apart from that, there’s nothing surprising. West Indies on the flip side will be without Shamar and Alzarri and even Roach is unavailable so it will be interesting to see the Windies line up. They are even without the service of Joshua de Silva so West Indies will have to rely a lot on different players. Stay tuned to find out. Toss and team sheets next.
Hello and welcome to the action of Day 1 between Pakistan and West Indies. In between all the franchise cricket going on across the world. We will see some red ball action as these two nations face each other. Pakistan are favourites on their home soil and could be a dominating force against an inexperienced Windies side.
...Day 1, Session 1...
Amidst the whirlwind of T20 leagues and the brief lull in Test cricket following the high-octane Test series in Australia and South Africa, Pakistan and West Indies are set to face off in a two-match Test series. Both matches will be played at the Multan Cricket Stadium, marking the West Indies' first Test series on Pakistani soil since 2006. With Australia and South Africa already securing their spots in the 2023-25 World Test Championship final, this series serves more as a battle to avoid the wooden spoon. West Indies currently languish at the bottom with 32 points, while Pakistan sit just above them with 35. Pakistan appear to be leaning on a familiar strategy designed for spin-friendly home conditions. In their previous series against England, they rebounded from an innings defeat in the first Test by relying heavily on spin, a tactic likely to be central in this series. The spin trio of Abrar Ahmed, Noman Ali, and Sajid Khan is expected to thrive on turning tracks. As Pakistan like to do these days, they have announced their playing XI a day before the game. Captain Shan Masood had to decide between the experienced Imam-ul-Haq and the young Muhammad Hurraira, who has scored three fifties in his last four first-class innings, including two against the West Indies in the warm-up game. They have opted to go with Hurraira at the top, handing him a debut. On the pace bowling front, it was always likely that only one pacer would be selected, and Khurram Shahzad has been given the nod ahead of Mohammad Ali. The rest of the batting remains solid with Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Kamran Ghulam, Saud Shakeel, and all-rounder Salman Agha. As far as the West Indies are concerned, they will be without the services of the two Josephs, Shamar, sidelined due to shin splints, and Alzarri, who is in the UAE fulfilling his ILT20 commitments. With spin expected to dominate the series, their absence may not be as significant as it would be in pace-friendly conditions. Gudakesh Motie will lead the spin attack, with Jomel Warrican and Kevin Sinclair providing support. The tourists have not yet announced their playing XI, but captain Kraigg Brathwaite, in his press conference, confirmed that Kemar Roach is unwell and has been ruled out. In a surprising move, vice-captain and wicketkeeper Joshua Da Silva has been left out. Given Roach's absence and the conditions, West Indies are likely to rely heavily on their spinners, with Jayden Seales being the only frontline pacer. Left-handed Amir Jangoo, who has impressed with his domestic performances, could be in line for a debut and take on the wicketkeeping duties. The rest of the batting order appears predictable, with Kraigg Brathwaite and Mikyle Louis opening, followed by Keacy Carty, Alick Athanaze, Kavem Hodge and all-rounder Justin Greaves rounding out the lineup. West Indies last won a Test series in Pakistan during the 1980/81 series. Can they break this long-standing drought, or will Pakistan be as dominant as they were in their previous series at home? We shall find out.
