Warrican faced tough competition from India's mystery leg spinner Varun Chakaravarthy and Noman Ali of Pakistan. The West Indian spinner delivered the best performance of his career with the ball versus the Shaheens and helped his team draw the two-match series. 
In the first Test-Match, the 32-year-old ended the match with figures of 10-101 to his name which also turned out to be the best bowling figures of his career in the longest format of the game and with the bat, he played an unbeaten knock of 31* runs. 
In the second match of the series, he carried forward his good momentum of the first contest into the second one and delivered yet another amazing performance, as he dismissed four Pakistani batters in the first inning and followed it up with a fifer in the second inning, ending the match with figures of 9-70.
In addition to his terrific performance with the ball, the 32-year-old also contributed 54 runs with the bat as the Windies marched their way to victory in the second encounter, thereby ensuring the series ended in a draw.  
Overall, Warrican scored a total of 85 runs at a good average of 42.50 and also claimed 19 scalps at an exceptional average of nine, earning him the Man-of-the-Series award. 
<blockquote>
"Winning this award is an honor," Warrican remarked upon receiving it. "My first five-for in Test cricket was one of my goals for this year, but I didn't think it would be this significant." 
"I see this as just one little step in my cricket career, and I'm excited for many more to come." In this series, I promised my captain something spectacular, especially after my father, who is my biggest supporter, said I would give a fantastic performance.
In addition to the West Indies' historic victory over Pakistan away from home, Multan holds a particular place in my heart for receiving this esteemed honor."
