The game will be played at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan from January 25, at 11:00 AM (IST).

Pakistan have been through a decent run of form in their last five Test appearances, with three wins and two defeats. They are coming off a 127-run win against West Indies following a 0-2 series defeat against South Africa. Shan Masood’s men will aim to win this match and seal the two-match Test series by 2-0.

On the contrary, the Caribbean side have been struggling with a dismal run of form in their last five Tests, winning only one game, three defeats and a ‘drawn’ game.

Pitch Report

The surface at the Multan Cricket Stadium is batting-friendly, especially in the first innings. But as the cracks develop on the track on the third and fourth day, it will start favouring the bowlers, especially the spinners. The spinners also dominated on the same track in the first Test. The average first-innings score here has been 358 runs while the overall average score is 320. So, the toss-winning skipper will look ahead to bat first and trouble the opponent in the later half of the game.
