West Indies National Cricket Team player Jomel Warrican played a massive role for his team in the second Test against the Pakistan National Cricket Team. The last match of the series between the two teams took place at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan.

Jomel Warrican spun the web around the Pakistan National Cricket Team batters and made sure that he helped his team win the Test match and draw the series. The left-arm spinner seemed unplayable as he troubled the hosts big time and kept jolting them with big blows.

Warrican picked the last wicket for his team and helped them script history. He removed Pakistan National Cricket Team spinner Sajid Khan, allowing the West Indies National Cricket Team to win their first-ever Test match in Pakistan in a long span of 34 years.

Warrican bowled a flatter delivery on off to which Sajid Khan pressed forward, stayed leg-side, and then tried to dab it onto the off-side. He got an under-edge and the ball bounced onto the stumps to send the Pakistan National Cricket Team player packing.

What caught the attention of many was the celebration of Jomel Warrican after he removed Sajid Khan. The left-arm spinner mimicked the Pakistan spinner's thigh-five/Gabbar celebration and also came up with the John Cena's 'You can't see me' celebration:

Notably, when Sajid Khan removed Jomel Warrican in the West Indies innings, he came up with the same celebration. The West Indies National Cricket Team player, however, made sure that he returned the favor and came up with something similar.

Warrican picked a five-wicket haul and returned with the figures of 5/27. His incredible spell with the ball helped West Indies National Cricket Team bundle out Pakistan National Cricket Team for 133 runs to win the game by 120 runs and level the series 1-1.

Variation in pace, hitting the same length over and over, just keeping the same length was the key for success - Jomel Warrican

While talking about his performance, Warrican said that managing his speed with the ball was important for him. He also said that they backed themselves to win the game. Speaking after the match, he explained:

"Speeds were very important, bowling was very effective and once I worked it out, it worked to my advantage./ I just backed myself, backed my ability to find the boundaries and rotate strike.

We were backing ourselves to win the game, we had the belief after having bowled them out for a cheap total in the first innings. Variation in pace, hitting the same length over and over, just keeping the same length was the key for success."
