WATCH: Noman Ali outsmarts the West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite with a stunning delivery | PAK vs WI, 2nd Test



Pakistan‘s left-arm spinner Noman Ali delivered a masterful piece of bowling to dismiss West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite on Day 2 of the second Test at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan on Sunday (January 26).

Noman Ali strikes with brilliant delivery to dismiss Kraigg Brathwaite

Brathwaite had been playing an aggressive game, stepping out of his crease and creating room to attack, especially on the leg side. He had successfully scored a few boundaries in that manner. However, on the last ball of the 23rd over, Noman’s flighted delivery, which pitched in line with the stumps and was cleverly held back, deceived the batter. The ball landed shorter than expected and turned sharply away. Brathwaite, trying to slog it over the leg side, missed completely. Mohammad Rizwan, displaying quick reflexes behind the stumps, took advantage of the big turn and bounce to complete a sharp stumping. Despite Brathwaite being well outside his crease, Rizwan’s quick work sealed the dismissal. This wicket left West Indies at 92/2, with Brathwaite contributing 52 runs off 74 balls, including 4 fours and 2 sixes.
