Pakistan nail West Indies

June 07, 2005 21:54 IST

Pakistan won a Test in the Caribbean for the first time in 17 years when they beat West Indies by 136 runs in the second and final test in Kingston, Jamaica on Tuesday.

Leg spinner Danish Kaneria grabbed five for 46 and paceman Shabbir Ahmed took four for 55 to earn Pakistan a 1-1 draw in the series.

West Indies, who resumed on 114 for six chasing 280 for victory, were bowled out for 143 as they slumped to their 13th defeat in 20 matches.

Kaneria, who claimed his 11th five-wicket haul in tests, began the day by having Daren Powell caught by Yasir Hameed for 12.

Shabbir followed up by dismissing Courtney Browne (10), Reon King (4) and Tino Best (4) to wrap up the innings in only 40 minutes.

Pakistan, who earlier swept the one-day matches 3-0, have never won a Test series in the Caribbean.
