Pakistan grind Windies down in Abu Dhabi

Pakistan are on the brink of clinching their Test series against the West Indies after a dominant display on day four of the second Test.

The hosts ended the day needing just 6 wickets to take the second Test and claim an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the three match series.

Pakistan resumed play on day four at 114 for 1 and seemed to have settled on a lunchtime declaration even before play got underway.

The world number two Test side gathered 113 runs in the morning session and trundled along at just over four an over losing only Azhar Ali (79) along the way.

The loose shot that preceded Azhar's departure was most likely a result of Pakistan simply trying to get on with things to ensure they get the result they deserve after dominating the men from the Caribbean for the bulk of this Test.
