Pakistan Secures Victory Over West Indies, Ending Eight-Match Losing Streak

Pakistan concluded its eight-match losing streak in overseas Test matches with an eight-wicket victory over West Indies in the second Test held on August 5, 2026, at Queen's Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.

Key contributions came from Abdullah Shafique and Babar Azam, both scoring 24 runs as Pakistan chased down a modest target of 75 runs shortly after lunch on Day 4, leveling the series 1-1. West Indies had previously won the first Test by 90 runs.

The match saw Pakistan's spinners excel, with Sajid Khan and Ali Usman taking crucial wickets. West Indies struggled in their second innings, being bowled out for 117. The defeat was disappointing for West Indies captain Roston Chase, who noted the team's desire to win the series 2-0.
