Injured Shan to miss Pakistan's second Test against West Indies
- The top order batter smashed a first-innings hundred at the Brian Lara Stadium but also fractured the index finger
Pakistan batter Shan Masood will miss the second and final Test against West Indies after fracturing his finger in the opening match in Tarouba, the team said on Thursday.
The top order batter smashed a first-innings hundred at the Brian Lara Stadium but also fractured the index finger of his left hand after being hit by a Jayden Seales delivery, which forced him to drop down to number eight as Pakistan went on to lose by 90 runs.
“Following a scan and clinical assessment, Shan is currently undergoing treatment from the Pakistan team medical panel,” the Pakistan Cricket Board said in a statement.
