Ahmed broke the fighting stand. Tevin Imlach c Mohammad Rizwan b Abrar Ahmed 14(30) [4s-1]

The second session has already begun, and West Indies batters Tevin Imlach and Alick Athanaze look to stabilise the visitors' innings after the visitors lost the first five wickets in the first session of Day 3.

OUT! Another one bites the dust, and Pakistan spinners are outclassing West Indies' batters. This time Noman Ali strikes, and Justin Greaves departs for just nine runs.

OUT! Lovely piece of bowling from Sajid Khan as he removed Mikyle Louis for 13 runs. Pakistan is on top with this wicket, and the visitors are falling apart very quickly. Poor shot from Louis, who went for a big shot against Sajid Khan. The batter came down the track and tried to go for a glory shot over the mid-wicket region but ended up missing the ball. Here comes the thigh-five celebration from the spinner. Mikyle Louis b Sajid Khan 13(36)

OUT! Another wicket for Jomel Warrican. The spinner is having a dream day. Seventh wicket for him in the second innings.

OUT!  Second wicket for Jomel Warrican this morning as he removed wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan for a low score. Lovely ball this is from Warrican, as Rizwan had no answers to it. Drifting in and around off from round the wicket, pitched on a good length. Rizwan looked to play on the back foot, but the ball gripped and turned sharply. It took the edge, and Hodge took a sharp catch to his left at slip. Rizwan departed after scoring just two runs. Mohammad Rizwan c Kavem Hodge b Jomel Warrican 2(6)

OUT! What a start for the West Indies as in-form Saud Shakeel departs on the very first ball being bowled on Day 3. Jomel Warrican gets the huge wicket. A perfect start for the visitors. Such a soft dismissal as Shakeel departs. It was a slow and tossed-up delivery on off stump; Shakeel got forward and flicked it through on the on-side. The batter failed to keep it down, and Justin Greaves takes a regulation catch in the short midwicket region. Saud Shakeel c Justin Greaves b Jomel Warrican 2(9)
