Port of Spain: Shadab Khan gave another match-winning bowling performance as Pakistan sneaked to a three-run victory over the West Indies in the second T20 International on Thursday.


Set a relatively modest target of 133 to level the series following a six-wicket defeat in the opening match in Barbados, the hosts were restricted to 129 for eight to suffer their fifth consecutive T20 loss to the visitors.


Pakistan now hold an unbeatable 2-0 lead ahead of the final two matches at the weekend back at the Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad.
In the wake of an impressive debut at Kensington Oval, Shadab snared four for 14 with his mesmerising mixture of leg-breaks and googlies to stymie the West Indies quest. He won his second consecutive man-of-the-match award.
