Off-spinner Sajid Khan has impressed with his performances since Pakistan began creating spin-friendly pitches at various venues. Sajid Khan was seen making the iconic "You Can't See Me" gesture, a signature move of WWE superstar John Cena, during the ongoing second Test against the West Indies.
The West Indies set Pakistan a target of 254 runs to win the second Test at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan on Sunday, January 26. The visiting team was bowled out for 244 runs in their second innings. Sajid Khan and Noman Ali were the best performers for Pakistan with the ball, each taking four wickets.

The incident took place on the final ball of the 59th over of West Indies' second innings. Sajid Khan bowled a slower, fuller delivery to Jomel Warrican, who attempted a big shot but missed. The ball spun sharply and went past the stumps. Sajid made a 'you can't see me' gesture to intimidate Warrican.
The Pakistan Cricket Board's official account on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) shared a clip of the gesture with the caption, "Sajid Khan to Warrican 😎 #PAKvWI | #RedBallRumble."

Sajid played a key role in Pakistan's success against England last year and has continued his strong performances in the series against the West Indies. He delivered dominant performances in the first Test at Multan, where he picked nine wickets. The spinner took two wickets in the first innings of the second Test.
West Indies in Driving Seat on Day 2 of Second Test Match
The West Indies are in a strong position on Day 2, despite being bowled out for just 163 in their first innings. Pakistan was then dismissed for only 154 runs. In the second innings, the West Indies batted better, setting a challenging target of 254 for Pakistan, leading by 253 runs with just over a day remaining.
Sajid Khan dismissed Jomel Warrican (18), ending the West Indies' innings at 244/10. Skipper Kraigg Brathwaite was the top scorer for the West Indies, scoring 52 runs off 74 balls with four boundaries and two sixes. Amir Jangoo (30), Tevin Imlach (35), and Kevin Sinclair (28) also made important contributions.
The Pakistan national cricket team, led by Shan Masood, now faces the tough task of chasing 254 runs, and their batsmen will need to perform well to secure a win.
