Surprise! After such a dismal first innings from West Indies, they have ended up securing a lead of 9 runs. After Jomel Warrican dismissed Rizwan and Noman in the same over, Gudakesh Motie cleaned up Salman Agha and the dup shared the remaining wickets with Kashif Ali being run out. West Indies have bowled and fielded well, A decent performance in the second innings with the bat can seal the deal for them. Salman Agha b Motie 9(32), Abrar Ahmed b Warrican 2(6), Kashif Ali run out (Kevin Sinclair/Tevin Imlach) 0(0).

Out! The game has turned on its head. So long, Pakistan were seeming to be the side in control despite the fall of wickets. But the double wicket over from Jomel Warrican has shifted things completely back and the game is well poised now. First he brought Rizwan down the pitch with the flight and got him stumped and then gets Noman Ali dismissed with a bat pad catch. Rizwan st Tevin Imlach b Warrican 49(75) and  Noman Ali c Athanaze b Warrican 0(2).

25 Jan, 16:33 (IST)

Out! That's the end of Saud Shakeel but unfortunate for him. Saud came running down the pitch and then played the pick-up shovel, was looking like a safe shot, but Roach sprints across to his left from long-on, puts in the full-stretched dive sideways and comes up with a brilliant two-handed catch. Crucial for West Indies and concerning for Pakistan. Warrican will really want to thank Roach for it.  Saud Shakeel c Roach b Warrican 32(62).

25 Jan, 15:59 (IST)

Pakistan has batted very cautiously in the post Tea session as they know one mistake can trigger a collapse and eventually a difficult position in the Test match. They have measure every step and Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel know they have a task at their hand. 

25 Jan, 15:36 (IST)

Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel have resumed proceedings for Pakistan in the post-tea session. These two would ideally want to remain unbeaten at stumps while West Indies continue to hunt for more wickets.

25 Jan, 15:24 (IST)

Tea on Day 1! Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel have done well to steady the hosts' innings after they lost four early wickets. Pakistan still trail by 93 runs and it will be interesting to if West Indies manage to take a couple of more wickets at stumps on Day 1.

25 Jan, 14:53 (IST)

Out! Pakistan are not out of trouble yet and they lose another. This time it is Kamran Ghulam who falls due to a short partnership. Tossed up on off and the length drew Kamran Ghulam forward, he does so with pretty hard hands and pushes it straight to Alick Athanaze at silly mid-off. Kamran Ghulam c Athanaze b Motie 16(41).

25 Jan, 14:27 (IST)

Out! West Indies are strongly present in the game and Kemar Roach is showing signs of his past during his spell. First Gudakesh Motie dismisses Babar Azam and then Kemar Roach cleans up Pakistan captain Shan Masood. Some huge blows upfront for the home team and then need some cleaning work done here.  Babar Azam b Motie 1(5) and Masood b Roach 15(27). 

25 Jan, 14:07 (IST)

Out! West Indies draw first blood. Kemar Roach keeps it on a length and angling inwards. Nips in off the deck and beats the inside edge onto the front pad of Huraira.  The lack of bounce helps Roach as the ball hits Hurraira just below the knee roll. Muhammad Hurraira lbw b Roach 9(13).

25 Jan, 13:53 (IST)

The opening partnership is crucial in a low-scoring match and it is also necessary to be assertive in decision making if survival needs to be a little easier. Shan Masood and Muhammad Hurraira have started the innings positively and they look to give a steady start to Pakistan.

Pakistan National Cricket Team vs West Indies National Cricket Team Live Score Updates:  Pakistan is currently playing West Indies in a two-match Test series in Multan. They have already won the first Test match and are leading 1-0 in the series. Pakistan have made a comeback in terms of their Test match form as they have won the last series at home against England. They have cracked the formula of winning at home as they have specially tried to make their pitches suit spin more and unleashed their spinners Sajid Khan and Noman Ali on them, who have provided them with decent results. They have tried the formula in the first Test match at Multan too and they have been able to comfortably secure a victory there too. It is very much likely that Pakistan captain Shan Masood will rely on his spinners once again for a victory in the second Test.  Mohammad Rizwan Bats Left-Handed Against Spin in Training Session Ahead of PAK vs WI 2nd Test 2025 in Multan (Watch Video).

West Indies, meanwhile, have produced a dismal batting performance in both innings of the Test match last time in Multan. In the first innings, most of the runs came from the lower order and tailenders and in the second innings, Alick Athanaze ended up being the lone warrior. The likes of Mikyle Louis, Justin Greaves, Keacy Carty, Kavem Hodge will have to contribute with the bat as well if West Indies want to have any chance at winning here. Pakistan were not great with the bat in the first Test, so if West Indies can score some runs here, there is very high chance of them to put the hosts under pressure. Pakistan have already announced their playing XI. With fast bowler Khurram Shehzad missing out, Kashif Ali is all set to make debut in his place.

Pakistan (Playing XI): Shan Masood(c), Muhammad Hurraira, Babar Azam, Kamran Ghulam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan(w), Salman Agha, Sajid Khan, Noman Ali, Kashif Ali, Abrar Ahmed

West Indies Squad: Kraigg Brathwaite(c), Mikyle Louis, Keacy Carty, Kavem Hodge, Alick Athanaze, Justin Greaves, Tevin Imlach(w), Kevin Sinclair, Gudakesh Motie, Jomel Warrican, Jayden Seales, Joshua Da Silva, Amir Jangoo, Anderson Phillip, Kemar Roach.
