An unbeaten 168-run partnership between Babar Azam and Abdullah Shafique saw Pakistan gallop to within 78 runs of West Indies' first innings total of 344. The question, after West Indies had posted what appeared an above-par 344, was when, rather than if, Pakistan's innings would implode under pressure. But the pair shut out the outside noise, building upon confident beginnings before tea in a final session where West Indies were made to grind. Things had appeared much brighter for West Indies in the morning. West Indies reviewed, and Hawkeye showed it slamming into leg stump, giving the hosts a breakthrough they desperately required.
