Pak Wi Series: Spinners Eye Milestones

Updated :

The ongoing Test series between Pakistan and West Indies is set to witness significant milestones for Pakistan's spinners Abrar Ahmed and Sajid Khan, who are on the verge of completing 50 Test wickets. The series, which has been affected by poor air quality in Multan, is expected to be a test of Pakistan's spin-friendly pitch preparation and West Indies' ability to counter the challenging conditions.

Abrar Ahmed and Sajid Khan have been impressive in their recent performances, with Abrar taking 39 wickets in 8 Tests and Sajid taking 44 wickets in 10 Tests. The two spinners are likely to play a crucial role in Pakistan's performance in the first Test against West Indies, having previously impressed in Pakistan's home series against England. Pakistan has made significant changes to their squad, including the inclusion of new additions Abdur Rehman and Muhammad Hurraira, while West Indies has dropped vice-captain Joshua da Silva and is likely to play a spin-heavy squad.

The Multan pitch is expected to provide significant turn, with Pakistan employing a unique method of heating the surface to create ideal spin-friendly conditions. West Indies has struggled with spin in the past, but has shown resilience and has a capable lineup that can potentially thrive in these conditions. The series will be a low-key fixture, but it has the potential to provide some exciting cricket and could give West Indies a chance to move off the bottom of the WTC table.

As the series progresses, all eyes will be on Abrar Ahmed and Sajid Khan as they aim to reach their milestones and help Pakistan secure a victory. The series will also be a test of West Indies' ability to adapt to spin-friendly conditions and their resilience in the face of challenging opposition. With the teams ready to take to the field, the stage is set for an exciting and unpredictable series.
