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.

"His availability for the first test ​against England starting 19 August ​at ⁠Leeds will depend on his recovery and clinical progress."

Pakistan will play ⁠a ​three-test series in England ​followed by five One Day Internationals.
