Spinners wreaked havoc in the last 3 home tests
This is not the first time that Pakistan’s spinners have done wonders by taking all 20 wickets in a test match. Pakistan’s spinners had achieved the same feat in the last two Test matches played at home. That means, in the last 3 Test matches played at home, all 60 wickets have been taken by Pakistan’s spinners. Pakistan’s fast bowler could not take a single wicket in the last 3 home test matches. From this, the dominance of Pakistani spinners can be estimated. That is, the Pakistan team which was known for its fast bowling, now seems to be identified with its spinners.
This was the condition of the match
Not only the spinners of Pakistan but also the spinners of West Indies did wonders in the first test. West Indies spinner Jomel Warrican took 3 wickets in the first innings but played an important role in bowling out Pakistan for 157 runs by taking 7 wickets in the second innings. In this way, Jomel Warrican became the first spin bowler in the world to take 7 wickets in a Test against Pakistan at home. The West Indies team could score only 137 runs in the first innings and then collapsed to just 123 runs in reply to the target of 251 runs.
