Pakistan vs West Indies, 2nd ODI at Multan, PAK v WI, Jun 10 2022 - Match Result

That's all from us, folks. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. We'll see you in a couple of days for the final ODI. For now, it's goodbye from us, thanks for joining.

Babar Azam: The wicket was double paced, our plan was to build partnerships. The ball was spinning as well. We were 10-15 short because we lost back to back wickets. We wanted to save Khushdil for the end that's why we sent him later. We were confident at the break that we could defend this. Nawaz took wickets at crucial junctures. We were under pressure after the first 10 but really happy with the way we fought back

Nicholas Pooran: Tough day for us. I thought we bowled well in the first 45 overs but conceded 20 too many. Death bowling has been a problem for us. The guys are young and inexperienced. Hopefully we'll get better with every game. Credit must be given to Nawaz who bowled really well. It was definitely a challenging wicket. There were some soft dismissals, it wasn't our day.

Mohammad Nawaz is the player of the match: I was focusing on the basics, the pitch assisted me. The ball was turning, we had an idea in the first innings, particularly after I got out. I have confidence in my batting, I want to do well as an allrounder and improve day by day.

11.17pm It was a par score at best but Pakistan defended it spiritedly. Shaheen Shah Afridi started the defence in style with the wicket of Shai Hope in the opening over. But West Indies hit back with a second wicket partnership of 67 in no time. Kyle Mayers and Shamarh Brooks were going along at break-neck speed before Mayers' impetuousness got the better of him as Mohammad Wasim cleaned him up. 71 for 2 soon became 72 for 3 as spin started to have a say. Mohammad Nawaz was brilliant through the middle taking career best figures of four for 19, becoming the first Pakistan bowler since Mohammad Hafeez in 2011 to concede less than 20 runs in his full quota in an ODI. With both spinners spinning the ball away from the right handers, the onus was on Nicholas Pooran to make a contribution, but he couldn't capitalise on his start as he fell to a beauty from Nawaz for 25. Thereon, West Indies were staring down the barrel, and the lower order folded without making much of an impression to give Pakistan an unassailable two-nil lead in the series. Stay tuned for the presentation.

The last Pakistan bowler before Mohammad Nawaz to have conceded less than 20 runs in an ODI after bowling full quota of 10 overs was Mohammad Hafeez in 2011.
