West Indies clinched a historic win over Pakistan, marking their first Test victory on Pakistani soil since 1990. The triumph came in Multan with a 120-run margin.

Pakistan, needing 178 runs for series victory, crumbled after reaching 76-4 at the end of the second day. Key dismissals by Kevin Sinclair and Jomel Warrican set the tone early for the visitors.

While Mohammad Rizwan resisted with a 25-run knock, his dismissal by Warrican triggered a collapse, resulting in a mere 122 all out. Warrican's five-wicket haul was pivotal, alongside Gudakesh Motie's contributions, leveling the series after Pakistan's initial victory in the first Test.
