West Indies vs Pakistan Test record

Entities: Justin Greaves · Pakistan cricket team · West Indies cricket team · Shan Masood · International Cricket Council

Overview

Barbadian all‑rounder Justin Greaves achieved a historic feat in the opening Test of the ICC World Test Championship at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad. On day three, Greaves bowled five consecutive maiden overs – the first such spell in Test cricket history – and claimed five wickets for 27 runs, sparking a dramatic collapse of the Pakistani batting line‑up that had been anchored by Shan Masood’s century. The spell turned the match in West Indies’ favour, and they ultimately won by 90 runs, extending their series lead.

Following the performance, Greaves entered the ICC’s top‑10 list of Test all‑rounders, moving to ninth place, while teammate Shamar Joseph also broke into the top‑10. The record‑setting spell has been hailed as a major boost for West Indies cricket, enhancing team morale and its standing in the international arena.
