A 118-run partnership between Roston Chase and Shane Dowrich rescued the West Indies on the opening day of the first Test against Pakistan.
The hosts slipped to 71 for five before Chase (63) and wicketkeeper Dowrich (56) steadied the ship as the West Indies reached stumps on 244 for seven.
Kraigg Brathwaite fell in the second over when Mohammad Abbas had him caught at slip without scoring and it was 32 for three when Mohammad Amir removed Shimron Hetmyer and Shai Hope in quick succession.
Vishaul Singh and Kieran Powell were then dismissed to leave the West Indies in disarray before Chase and Dowrich came together.
Chase struck a six and seven other boundaries in a fluent innings from 151 balls, while Dowrich found the boundary nine times but both men fell with the score on 189.
It was then left to Jason Holder (30 not out) and Devendra Bishoo (23no) to compile an unbroken stand of 55 to take the hosts to the close.
Amir was the pick of the tourists' attack with three for 28 from his 19 overs.
