Pakistan, led by Babar Azam, and West Indies, led by Roston Chase, will meet in the second and final Test of the series at Queen's Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad, starting on Sunday, August 2. West Indies will look to complete a 2-0 series sweep after winning the opening Test by 90 runs.
Pakistan fought back with the ball in the second innings. Mohammad Abbas produced an excellent spell of fast bowling, taking 5/22 as Pakistan bowled West Indies out for 181 in their second innings. Pakistan were bowled out for just 120.
Jayden Seales led West Indies' attack with outstanding figures of 5/20, helping the hosts complete a comfortable 90-run victory. Pakistan will also enter the second Test on a seven-match losing streak in away Tests. Their bowlers have created opportunities, but the batting unit must deliver.
West Indies will carry plenty of confidence into the final Test. Jayden Seales, Justin Greaves, and Shamar Joseph give the hosts a strong pace attack, while Pakistan will look to Mohammad Abbas and their other bowlers for early breakthroughs.

West Indies
Jayden Seales: The fast bowler will enter the second Test with confidence after taking a match-winning five-wicket haul in the previous game. He will once again be a major threat to Pakistan's batting lineup.
Shai Hope: Hope scored an important 92 in the first Test and played a key role in West Indies' victory. The hosts will expect another strong performance from him in the series finale.
