The prime minister also urged the general public to change the way the physically challenged people are being addressed by them. Indian High Commissioner Dr TCA Raghavan on Tuesday paid a farewell call on Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif at the PM House.
It ended the West Indies’ innings on 282, giving Australia a 177-run victory and an unassailable 2-0 lead in the Frank Worrell Trophy series.
Off-spinner Lyon and all-rounder Marsh were responsible for all but three of the West Indies second-innings wickets to fall on day four.
Skipper Jason Holder on Tuesday (December 29) called for greater discipline from his bowlers as West Indies head to Sydney this week with the series lost but plenty still to prove.
“Weather will come into it, what happens with the game, but the way the wicket has been playing, it’s been spinning so there’s a real chance we’ll do that this time”.

Smith and Voges repeated the dose on day two, guiding Australia to a score of 3-551 (dec) that would set up a massive lead of 280 on the first innings, effectively putting the Windies out of contention.
Pattinson had two wickets denied to him for overstepping on Sunday’s third day, and it was the wicketless Hazlewood’s turn on day four.
Only Joe Root (1,372) was in a position in England’s current Test match against South Africa in Durban to overtake him in the final Test of the year.
