Pakistan Levels Test Series with Win Over West Indies; Chase Reflects on Selection
Pakistan secured an eight-wicket win over the West Indies in the second Test at Queen's Park Oval, ending a three-year away Test drought and leveling the series 1-1. Pakistan captain Babar Azam credited the decision to play an extra spinner for the victory, highlighting strong performances from Abdullah Shafique and spinners Sajid Khan and Ali Usman. West Indies captain Roston Chase acknowledged his team underestimated the pitch's spin-friendly conditions and regretted not including an additional frontline spinner, citing his own injury as a factor.
