Scorecard<\/a><\/p>\n Jayden Seales claimed 5-20 as the West Indies pace attack ruthlessly crushed Pakistan to clinch a 90-run victory just after tea on day four of the first Test.<\/p>\n Set 211 for victory, Pakistan were reduced to 71-9 in their second innings on a deteriorating pitch and had looked on course to be bowled out for their lowest total in Tests against the hosts.<\/p>\n However, a battling 10th-wicket partnership between Babar Azam and Muhammad Abbas worth 49 runs took the match into the evening session.<\/p>\n The Pakistan skipper made an unbeaten 58, before Seales secured the success at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad when he had Abbas trapped lbw for 23.<\/p>\n West Indies skipper Roston Chase dedicated the victory to the late Sir Garfield Sobers, who died recently<\/a> and would have turned 90 on the day they wrapped up victory.<\/p>\n “We wanted to make him proud and had a chat about it before the match. I hope he is smiling down on us,” said Chase.<\/p>\n “I also want to thank the Trinidad crowd for coming out and supporting us. It was not a big crowd but it gave us enough energy and support to go out there and perform.”<\/p>\n Having resumed on 126-7, West Indies managed to add 55 runs for their last three wickets in the morning session.<\/p>\n Shamar Joseph top-scored for the hosts with 38 off 27 balls, including four sixes, while Kemar Roach made a dogged 18 off 63 balls.<\/p>\n Abbas was the pick of the Pakistan bowlers as he claimed 5-22.<\/p>\n Their chase started to unravel before lunch when Seales removed Imam-ul-Haq, Azan Awais and Salman Agha.<\/p>\n
