Right, that brings our coverage to an end. Do watch out for Sreshth's report, and we'll see you tomorrow for the third T20I as West Indies battle to keep the series alive.
"I was very impressed with the boys," Babar says. "We were 10-15 runs short, but our bowlers bowled very well, and I think we should give them credit. We were looking for 170-180, but we lost too many wickets at that time."
Pays tribute to Hafeez too. "He showed his experience in the PP. As captain it pleased me tremendously."
"I thought the way the bowlers bounced back shows we're consistent with the ball," Pollard says. "I don't think the pitch changed much but it dried out a bit. Pakistan bowled wicket-to-wicket, but the way we fought in the end was impressive.
"At the end of the day we could have taken a few more singles, but you can come up with lots of ideas, but this is a learning curve for us. There are things we continue to look at, and it's all about improvement as the games go on. We were on the losing end today but all hope isn't lost."
Mohammad Hafeez is the Player of the Match. "It's my first MoM award as a bowler. We knew the conditions were tough for the batsmen against spinners. Shadab bowled really well, and Shaheen's last over, he nailed his yorkers."
Hafeez credits playing the CPL and his experience in that compo for today's performance. "I really tried to execute my skills and it worked well for me. I'm more comfortable bowling to left-handers and I believe I put them under more pressure, but you still have to nail your lengths."
Irfan: "West Indies didn't time the chase well at all. Only 4 wickets down, they left the big hitting too late. Congratulations Pakistan."

- Mohammad Wasim1 (3b)

Holder says this is a really good wicket but has something in it for the spinners. Calls it a par score.
Had the innings wrapped up at the rain break at 16 overs, WI would have had to chase 158 in 16. As it is, they need that same total in the full 20. Join Sreshth in about 10 minutes for the chase.
