Tarouba (Trinidad and Tobago):Roston Chase and Justin Greaves led West Indies to a five-wicket victory over Pakistan with 10 balls to spare in the rain-reduced second one-day cricket international, leveling the three-match series at 1-1.
Chase's 49 not out off 47 balls included two sixes and the winning boundary as West Indies scored 184-5 in 33.2 overs on Sunday.
The hosts were chasing a revised target of 181 runs in 35 overs under the DLS method after multiple rain interruptions saw Pakistan's innings end at 171-7 in 37 overs. Right-arm fast bowler Jayden Seales took 3-23 in seven overs.
West Indies stumbled from 101-3 after 18 overs at Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad and Tobago, to 111-5 off 24 overs, including the wicket of Sherfane Rutherford, who hit a 33-ball 45 with three sixes and four fours.
Chase and Greaves (26 off 31) shared a 77-run unbroken partnership for the sixth wicket.
West Indies earlier chose to bowl first and Hasan Nawaz again played a key role for Pakistan with 36 not out off 30 deliveries, after his unbeaten 63 in the ODI opener.
Hasan's knock on Sunday included three sixes — two of them in what turned out to be the last over of Pakistan's innings after more rain. Hussain Talat got 31 off 32 balls but most Pakistan batters were much slower, including captain Mohammad Rizwan who was trapped lbw by Gudakesh Motie for a 38-ball 16.
Pakistan beat West Indies in the first one-day international on Friday, also by five wickets.
The third and final match in the ODI series is scheduled for Tuesday at the same stadium.
Pakistan won the preceding Twenty20 series 2-1 played in Florida.

Rohit Sharma hits the gym to train with Abhishek Nayar amid reports of ODI retirement

Rohit Sharma teamed up with former India coach Abhishek Nayar for a new fitness regime amid ODI retirement rumours. The former India Test and T20I captain is looking to stay fit for the 2027 Cricket World Cup despite speculation over his future. Former India Test and T20I captain Rohit Sharma is not letting retirement rumours slow him down. Even though there are reports that the Indian skipper could soon be forced to call time on his ODI career, Rohit has made it clear he wants to keep playing until the 2027 Cricket World Cup. After stepping away from Tests and T20Is in the past 12 months, the 38-year-old is now fully focused on staying fit for the 50-over format. Some reports emerged suggesting that the BCCI might ask both Rohit and Virat Kohli to retire from ODIs in the upcoming series against Australia because they want to give more chances to young players. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Rohit Sharma trains with former India coach However, it appears that these reports are not impacting Rohit he has teamed up with his old Mumbai teammate Abhishek Nayar for a fresh fitness regime. Rohit has always spoken highly of Nayar's training methods and has also worked with him in the past. Nayar was also India's assistant coach before being sacked by the BCCI. Since the end of IPL 2025 in June, Rohit has enjoyed some time off with his family. He was recently seen watching India's fifth Test against England at The Oval. If Rohit is selected for the upcoming ODIs, which is very likely since he is still the captain, he will need to keep himself in top physical shape. Playing 50-over cricket demands good stamina. The selectors will expect him to be match-ready, both mentally and physically. However, without regular cricket in his schedule right now, it can be challenging for Rohit to maintain the same level of fitness that comes easily during a busy season. Training in the nets is one thing, but the intensity of actual matches is hard to replicate.
