Imam-ul-Haq continued his rich vein of form as he scored his seventh successive scores of fifty or more during the third Pakistan-West Indies ODI in Multan on Sunday. In reaching the 50-run mark, Imam became only the second cricketer to score more than six straight half-centuries in ODIs. However, Pakistan cricket team captain Babar Azam, who had scored his sixth successive half-century in the second ODI against West Indies, fell for just 1 and missed out on a record. Pakistan have already sealed the three-ODI series after winning the first two ODIs.

Pakistan's captain won the toss and chose to bat in the third and final day-night international against the West Indies in Multan on Sunday.
Pakistan, who have an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the series, handed an ODI debut to 23-year-old fast bowler Shahnawaz Dahani, who came into the side in place of Haris Rauf.
Hasan Ali returned to the side, giving fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi a rest.
