Pakistan dominate

-

Pakistan continued their domination of the second cricket test against a demoralise­d West Indies side in Abu Dhabi yesterday. Pakistan elected to make their opponents suffer further by not enforcing the follow-on after they had taken a 228-run first innings lead. Already 1-0 ahead in the series, Pakistan bowled out West Indies for 224 and then finished the third day on 114-1 to stretch their lead to an already impregnabl­e-looking 342. Both Pakistan openers Azhar Ali and Sami Aslam scored half centuries after successful TV referrals against lbw decisions and Azhar, triple centurion in the first test, was still going strong on 52, despite having been dropped on 17, at the close.
