India, Aug. 6 -- Pakistan registered a morale-boosting eight-wicket victory over West Indies in the second Test at Queen's Park Oval on Wednesday to level the two-match series 1-1. Chasing a target of just 75, the visitors cruised to 77/2 after lunch, with captain Babar Azam and Abdullah Shafique remaining unbeaten on 24 each. The win marked Pakistan's second victory of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 cycle and ended their three-year wait for an overseas Test triumph. It also ended an eight-match losing streak away from home and handed Pakistan their first Test win in the Caribbean since 2021, leading to a notable improvement in the latest WTC standings.
