During the same Test match, another player shone brightly, this time for the West Indies. Jason Holder’s men were in all sorts of trouble after getting dismissed for a low score and were looking down the barrel for yet another drubbing in Test cricket.

Nevertheless, leg-spinner Devendra Bishoo’s repertoire with the ball brought West Indies into contention for a stupendous victory. His exemplary spell of 13.5-1-49-8, broke the backbone of the Pakistan batting-line up. From 3/77, the sub-continent team slumped to 123 balls in a space of 87 balls.

The leggie was unplayable as he dished out wickets at a hemorrhaging rate to stop the Pakistan batsman. Nonetheless, despite the awe-inspiring spell, West Indies lost the game by 56 runs.
