Jason Holder briefly threatened that he was scripting a miracle with a blister undefeated 30 of only 12 supplies, including four six towering. His late onslaught brought 38 runs in the last two breaks, but it was too little, too late when West Indies ended up at 164 for 7.
Previously, after Pakistan was asked for a bat first, he published a competing 178 for 6. The young opener Saim Ayub set the tone of the stylish 57 of the 38 vans, attached by five and two six.

Nawaz ended with excellent characters 3 for 23, while Ayub and Sufiyan Muqeem threw themselves with a goal behind a piece. Shaheen Shah Afridi, Standout among Sailors, also raised a key goal and exerted pressure all the time.
The defeat contributes to the suffering of West Indies in format, after 0-5 Whitewash against Australia at home. With Pakistan now 1-0 in a row of three matches, the hosts will have to get back quickly if they are to avoid another loss of the series in front of their own supporters.
