Pakistan’s win propels them to fourth spot in PAK vs WI –
An inspired performance from Shadab Khan led Pakistan to a 53-run win over West Indies in the third one-day international, wrapping up a 3-0 series sweep. Shadab’s career-best 86 off 78 balls on Sunday revived Pakistan, taking them to 9-269 after the hosts had chosen to bat first and then stumbled against the surprise off-spin of Nicholas Pooran, who took 4-48.
West Indies’ struggles against spin then continued as their middle order again capitulated against Shadab (4-62) and Mohammad Nawaz (2-56) and they ended up being skittled for 216 in 37.2 overs. The win saw Pakistan propelled to fourth spot in the ICC ODI Super League standings.
