PAK-C vs WI-C Match Prediction : World Championship of Legends, 2025, 11th Match

PAK-C vs WI-C Team Previews

Pakistan Champions

The Pakistani batting looks to be in great shape. Captain Mohammad Hafeez was the only batter to score a single-digit score in the game against the South Africa Champions. Umar Amin managed a half-century. Shoaib Malik made a notable contribution of 46 not out. Asif Ali and Aamer Yamin smashed quickfire cameos with both ending on strike rates over 200.

The bowling lineup looks to be in fine shape as well. Sohail Tanvir and Mohammad Hafeez grabbed a double each against their South African opponents. The rest of the bowling lineup got themselves a wicket each too. The only areas for concern would be Sohail Khan and Wahab Riaz going at over ten runs per over.

The team has all its bases covered across the batting and bowling departments. The Pakistanis also bring winning momentum after a convincing 31-run win in their previous match.

West Indies Champions

Chris Gayle remains the marquee power hitter. He has yet to realize that tag this tournament with some low scores to show for it. Gayle’s opening partner Dwayne Smith has struggled with the bat, averaging less than ten in his three innings.

Lendl Simmons made a start in his previous innings with 29 runs but didn’t get best second gear, ending with a strike rate of almost 100. Chadwick Walton provides energetic middle-order hitting, he has one half-century in a batting lineup which has largely misfired.

On paper, Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo are among the upper echelon of all-rounders to play the T20 format globally. They have only delivered in spurts this competition.

Sheldon Cottrell was disciplined enough to snag two wickets in his first match, but has gone wicketless since then. Shannon Gabriel’s fiery spells have produced key breakthroughs in tight T20 matches, but he was off-colour against Australia Champions with his sole over going for 25 runs.

Left-arm orthodox spinner Nikita Miller delivered a wicket in his previous innings, but he struggled to maintain any economical middle-overs control. Ashley Nurse was another of the spinners to take some tap against the Australia Champions, despite claiming one of the two wickets.
