- On Sunday, the West Indies reached 5-239 at stumps during the second Test against Pakistan at Queen's Park Oval, with Justin Greaves unbeaten on 64 and Roston Chase on 36.

- Greaves and Chase will resume their 66-run sixth-wicket partnership on the second morning, looking to extend their advantage on a pitch expected to become increasingly difficult.
