TAROUBA
\nRoston Chase lit up the third ODI with an unbeaten century before Jayden Seales ripped through Pakistan\u2019s lineup with a maiden six-for, sealing a commanding 202-run triumph for the West Indies at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy on Tuesday.
\nSeales blew away the Pakistan top order en route to figures of 6-18 as the tourists were bundled out for just 92 in a chase of 295 to win.
\nThe Windies had reached 294-6 in their 50 overs batting first, powered by captain Shai Hope\u2019s brilliant unbeaten hundred.
\nThe Caribbean side sealed a much-needed first ODI series win against Pakistan since 1991, after being swept aside 3-0 and 5-0 in Test and T20 series respectively by Australia earlier in the summer.
\n\u201cWe stress on negatives a lot in West Indies,\u201d said Hope. \u201cSo many positives to shout about. Great to see the guys pulling off history.
\n\u201cSeales is a quality bowler… He\u2019s a class act. Anything you ask him to do, he puts his hands up.\u201d
\nPakistan\u2019s reply got off to a horrendous start as Seales removed Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafique and Mohammad Rizwan inside the first three overs to reduce them to 8-3.
\nSeales then trapped Babar Azam lbw for just nine to leave Pakistan\u2019s hopes of a 2-1 series win in tatters.
\n\u201cSeales made it difficult for us. Done so throughout the series. But we lost three early wickets, that\u2019s what cost us,\u201d said Pakistan skipper Rizwan.
\nLeft-arm spinner Gudakesh Motie took two wickets through the middle overs, before Seales returned to remove tailenders Hasan Ali and Naseem Shah and complete a six-fer.
\nThe hosts, who lost the opening game of the series, wrapped up the win when Pakistan\u2019s number 11 Abrar Ahmed was run out by Roston Chase.
\nPakistan had started strongly with the ball after winning the toss and electing to field, as the West Indies struggled to find the boundary.
\nThe home side were 68-3 when Keacy Carty was dismissed lbw by Abrar for a 45-ball 17.
\nThe usually big-hitting Sherfane Rutherford also never got going and crawled to 15 from 40 deliveries before falling to Ayub.
\nBut Chase helped revive the innings with a quickfire 36, giving Hope some much-needed assistance.
\nChase was bowled by Naseem, and Motie was caught and bowled by Mohammad Nawaz as the West Indies\u2019 batting effort threatened to peter out.
\nBut Hope and Justin Greaves plundered 110 runs from the final 8.1 overs in a blistering assault to get their team close to 300.
\nHope finished on 120 not out, with 10 fours and five sixes, completing his 18th one-day international century.
\nHe now sits behind only Brian Lara and Chris Gayle on the all-time list for most ODI tons for the Windies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
