Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica Test Record & Pitch Report for WI vs PAK test

With not much cricket played in the T20 series, the teams now move from Guyana to Jamaica for the two-match test series. Earlier, the 4-match T20 series was cut short to just one match due to the indomitable rain. Pakistan won the T20 series 1-0 with just one match played in the series. This article covers the Pitch Report and the Test records of the Sabina Park cricket ground.

The rain did not just rob away most of the T20 series but also the last appearance of Dwayne Bravo in the Caribbean. The all-rounder had already confirmed that this will be his last home series. The next we will see him in action will be the T20 World Cup, which most likely will also be his last appearance for the West Indies.
