Abbas was the last batter out for 23 shortly after the tea interval on Day 4 when Pakistan was 120.<\/p>\n<p>Babar\u2019s 32nd Test half-century stood out in stark relief against an indisciplined Pakistan batting effort.

West Indies made 311 batting first.<\/p>\n<p>In two Pakistan innings, Masood\u2019s was the only century and there were half-centuries by Imam-ul-Haq, who made 63 in the first innings, and Babar. Otherwise, only six Pakistan batters reached double figures. Abbas\u2019 23 was the joint fourth-highest score by a Pakistan batter.<\/p>\n<p>Masood sustained a hand injury while batting in the first innings and was forced to drop from No. 3 to No. 8 in the order Tuesday, which was a major setback for Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>West Indies resumed Tuesday at 126-7, with a lead of 155 runs. Shamar Joseph went from 22 to 38 and Kemar Roach from 5 to 18 as West Indies pushed its lead beyond 200 runs.<\/p>\n<p>That proved more than adequate as Pakistan lost Imam-ul-Haq (3) in the third over to set the visitors\u2019 second collapse of the match in motion.<\/p>\n<p>Babar provided solidity at one end but, of Pakistan\u2019s top six batters, only Mohammad Rizwan with 11 reached double figures. Taking out Babar and Abbas, the Pakistan scoreboard read 3, 3, 0, 11, 0, 2, 3, 4 and 0.<\/p>\n<p>Pakistan folded in the face of Seales\u2019 early assault and contributions of 2-27 from Roach and 2-12 from Justin Greaves. Seales returned to make the final breakthrough, trapping Abbas lbw in the 41st over to finish with his fifth five-wicket haul in Tests.<\/p>\n<p>Greaves, who took 5-27 in Pakistan\u2019s first innings, was voted player of the match.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe came in and tried to be just as disciplined as possible,\u201d Greaves said. \u201cI mimicked Mohammad Abbas\u2019 fuller lengths when he bowled against us in the first and second innings and it pretty much worked out for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Abbas had returns of 3-63 and 5-22 for Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"publish-time\" id=\"end-of-article\">Published on Jul 29, 2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sportstar.thehindu.com\/cricket\/wi-vs-pak-1st-test-jayden-seales-5-wickets-west-indies-win-pakistan\/article71279598.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>West Indies completed a 90-run win in the first Test after Pakistan captain Babar Azam made an unbeaten 58 and shared a rearguard stand of 49 with No. 11 Mohammad Abbas to delay the end.
