Skipper Babar Azam and Fawad Alam scored half-centuries as Pakistan staged a remarkable recovery on the opening day of the second Test against the West Indies at Sabina Park on Saturday (IST), finishing the day on 212/4 after reeling at 2/3 in the early stages. Azam (75) and left-hander Alam (76) prevented a disastrous collapse, putting on 158 and blunting the home barrage before the latter retired hurt due to injury. Winning the toss and electing to field, Kraigg Brathwaite's decision seemed a smart one, with Kemar Roach dismissing Abid Ali in the first over for one.
