WI vs PAK Team Previews

West Indies

After a string of disappointing losses, the West Indies finally managed to turn things around as they defeated Pakistan by two wickets in a last-ball thriller. They will now hope to continue playing well and win the series as well.

There are certain things that the hosts need to improve on as they prepare for the virtual final on Sunday. The batting, especially at the top of the order, remains a concern. They replaced Johnson Charles by bringing in Alick Athanaze in the opening slot on Saturday, but he failed to give the team a strong start as they set out to chase a modest target.

Roston Chase and Shai Hope did play some good shots at the start of their innings, but were unable to capitalize on those starts. The West Indies needs at least a couple of batsmen from the top order who stay till the death overs if they want to post a big total.

One advantage for the hosts is the depth in batting, thanks to the presence of some good all-rounders. Gudakesh Motie, Jason Holder, and Romario Shepherd played brilliant cameos under pressure to take the team over the line and will hope to do the same in this match.

Coming to the bowling, the seamers have done well, with Shamar Joseph and Jason Holder picking up 9 wickets between them. However, they will expect a better performance from the slower bowlers, as Motie and Akeal Hosein haven’t been able to pick wickets during the middle overs.

West Indies Expected Playing 11

Alick Athanaze, Jewel Andrew (WK), Shai Hope (C), Keacy Carty, Sherfane Rutherford, Roston Chase, Gudakesh Motie, Jason Holder, Romario Shepherd, Shamar Joseph, Akeal Hosein

Pakistan

Pakistan will be disappointed with the way they performed in the last match, especially after the dominating performance in the first T20 match, which helped them gain an early advantage.

Saim Ayub and Sahibzada Farhan struggled against the new ball and failed to give the team a good start. They will hope to do better here. Pakistan has plenty of experienced batsmen in the middle order, including the likes of Fakhar Zaman, Salman Agha, Mohammad Haris, and Hasan Nawaz.

Nawaz is the joint-highest run-scorer of the series and played an excellent knock on Saturday, even as wickets toppled around him. Pakistan’s bowling was rather unimpressive, especially during the death overs. Hasan Ali and Shaheen Shah Afridi, who are among the most experienced seamers in the squad, were very expensive as they set out to defend a below-par total.

On the other hand, Mohammad Nawaz bowled well to pick up 3 wickets and is the leading wicket-taker of the series. Saim Ayub and Sufiyan Muqeem have bowled well in patches to pick up 6 wickets between them.

Pakistan Expected Playing 11

Saim Ayub, Sahibzada Farhan, Fakhar Zaman, Salman Agha (C), Mohammad Haris (WK), Hasan Nawaz, Mohammad Nawaz, Faheem Ashraf, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Hasan Ali, Sufiyan Muqeem

WI vs PAK Toss Prediction

6 of the last 10 matches played here were won while batting first. In half of those games, the captain winning the toss opted to bat first. We feel that chasing might be a better option here.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The pitch at the Central Broward Stadium is on the dry side. The ball loses some of its pace on pitching and makes it a bit difficult to time the shots. The seamers will get some help early in the match. However, as the game progresses, the surface will get slower, and the spinners can expect some turn.

Anything over 170 will be difficult to chase. The weather will remain warm and humid with temperatures around 30 degrees.

WI vs PAK: Who Will Win?

Both teams have played well in patches, and we are expecting a close contest between them, especially as the series is on the line. While it is difficult to predict a clear winner, we feel that Pakistan has a slight edge here thanks to a stronger batting unit and a well-balanced bowling attack.

Bet on Pakistan to win.

WI vs PAK win percentage stands at 50% in favor of both teams.
