This incident received praises from Former West Indies pacer Ian Bishop. He wrote on Twitter, “Great moment just now when a spectator ran onto the field. Instead of being violent with him (because it could have been dangerous, plus COVID), Shadab Khan hugged him and sent him on his way. #Beautiful. P:S,,,I understand all the reasons why that is frowned upon.”

Mohammad Nawaz’s four-wicket haul and skipper Babar Azam’s 77-run knock helped Pakistan in defeating West Indies by 120 runs in Multan on Friday.

With the win, Pakistan claimed an unassailable 2-0 lead over West Indies in their three-match ODI series. Apart from Mohammad Nawaz, Mohammad Wasim bagged three wickets while Shadab Khan scalped two wickets, which put the joint effort of West Indies’ Shamarh Brooks and Kyle Mayers in vain.

Babar’s wicket produced three wickets of Mohammad Rizwan (15), Mohammad Haris (6) and Mohammad Nawaz (3) for the visitors. For the West Indies, Hosein picked three for 52, while Alzarri Joseph and Phillip equally shared two wickets each conceding 33 and 50 runs, respectively.

Brief score: Pakistan 275/8 (Babar Azam 77, Imam-ul-Haq 72; Akeal Hosein 3-52) vs West Indies 155 (Shamarh Brooks 42, Kyle Mayers 33; Mohammad Nawaz 4-19).
