00:00Pakistan resumed the third day of the Tarouba test against the West Indies on 199 for 3,
00:06still 112 behind on first innings.
00:09Sean Masood and the right-handed Salman Aga put on a partnership of 47.
00:17Masood, who was on 88 overnight, completed his century, his 7th at test level.
00:22He went on to get a workman like 109.
00:28Then Salman Aga was comprehensively bowled by Shammar Joseph for 20.
00:33After that, Justin Graves was the man to remove Masood.
00:38Graves was proving to be potent with ball in hand.
00:44He ended with a Pfeiffer, which gave West Indies the edge.
00:53And Kimar Roach took the last one to finish with two wickets as Pakistan were all-out for 282.
00:59That gave West Indies an overall lead of 29.
01:03Batting a second time, Mohamed Abbas took quick wickets and the West Indies were in trouble at 7 for 2.
01:11It meant opener Teich Noreen Chandipal had his work cut out for him.
01:19It reached the stage where the West Indies were 43 for 4,
01:22with Sheeho playing an injudicious shot and falling for 10.
01:27But Chandipal would go on to get a sedate 35 of 101 deliveries.
01:36Ironically, he met his demise because of an impetuous stroke and it was 8 for 5 with the hosts in
01:42dire straits.
01:44When Justin Graves was gone, that resulted in Mohamed Abbas getting his 3rd scat.
01:53More trouble as Captain Rostan Chase had to depart for 8, giving Khuram Shahzad his 2nd wicket.
02:02Shamar Joseph was unbeaten on 22 as the Windies closed on a precarious 126 for 7.
02:08That's an overall lead of 155 going into day 4.
