Jayden seals Five-For Powers West Indies Win
Jayden seals scored a fifer and collaborated with the rest of the West Indies pacers to rip into Pakistan, but the visitors fell far short of their target of 211 in Trinidad. Before the bowlers could dig their heels into Pakistan’s batting, the West Indies’ tail defied them by increasing their overnight lead from 155 to 210.
That came despite the fact that the West Indies began the fourth day seven down because to Pakistan’s poor ball control. After soaring with the bat for a little more than an hour, their bowlers seized over and scared Pakistan early on, giving them no chance to recover.
Babar Azam remained a lonely figure throughout the day as his batting mates came and went. Pakistan entered the chase with slightly more than five sessions to bat. They barely made it past two before being defeated.
They made early breakthroughs, putting them on thin ice even before lunch break. Imam-ul-Haq was bowled by Kemar Roach in only his third over, nicking one behind to Hope after being undone by some extra bounce.
Jayden seals began his fifer with a wicket from a no-ball, as opener Azan Awais drove away from his body and nicked behind a half-volley. Seales then trapped Salman Agha’s leg for a six-ball duck. Pakistan took to lunch at 28/3 after 10 overs.
West Indies needed only 30 more overs to complete the innings. Pakistan’s senior duo of Azam and Mohammad Rizwan batted just eight overs, yet it was the second longest and most successful partnership in an abysmally structured chase.
They added only 21 runs until Greaves clean bowled Rizwan in the sixth over of the session with a peach – a delivery slanted in from wide of the crease that straightened from length.
Five of the next six hitters scored in single digits as Justin Greaves, Roach, and Seales unleashed a brutal three-pronged fast-bowling spell. Pakistan’s first hint of serious fight came during the final wicket partnership, which lasted 72 deliveries.
Mohammad Abbas held fort on one side for an extended amount of time in the company of Azam, who hit the half-century mark, which proved to be the sole consolation for him and his teammates.
After a 12-over vigil between the two, Jayden seals trapped the No. 11 hitter leg before to finish his innings on 23 – the second best effort on a disappointing scorecard – and bowl Pakistan out for 120.
