Babar Azam Run Out on 88, Extends Wait for Test Century Against West Indies
Pakistan captain Babar Azam was run out for 88 during the first innings of the second Test against West Indies in Port of Spain, extending his wait for a Test century to nearly four years since December 2022. The dismissal occurred after a mix-up with Abdullah Shafique, who had just completed a century. Despite the setback, Babar played a strong innings, contributing significantly as Pakistan aimed to level the two-match series. The run out was confirmed by a direct hit from Brandon King.
