West Indies vs Pakistan 3rd T20  Preview and Fantasy Picks

Preview

The Visitors showed excellent temperament against a mighty Caribbean side in their previous meeting. The Pakistan team were outstanding with the ball in defence of a mediocre total against the deep batting lineup of the West Indian side. The spinners again come to the party on a slowish deck, and they completely flatten the hosts.   Pakistani’s collapsed in the first half of the inning due to a lack of pace on the deck, and they got a fair amount of Idea how to bowl in the second half, which resulted in a 1-0 lead in the series. The first match of the series was abandoned and now hosts are under immense pressure of saving the series in the third match. The West Indian side somehow manages to end up on the losing side but they have the arsenal to dismantle any opposition. The hosts could make a comeback into the series if they can show the intent from ball one regardless of what pitch is behaving in the middle.  Pollard’s men definitely need to come up with different plans in a do or die encounter against the in-form Pakistan.

Match Details

The third match of the gripping T20I series will be played at the Providence Stadium, Guyana on the 1st of August at 08:30 PM.

WI vs PAK Playing Conditions

The weather is not looking promising for the third T20I. The scattered thunderstorm is expected on the match day, which could lead to a change in the strategies of both the teams. Chasing would be a great option especially under such conditions, although the pitch remains slow but the rain curtailed game gives an advantage to the team who bats second.

Real 11 Predicted Fantasy team

Captain and Vice Captain Picks

Captain (Babar Azam) - The Pakistani captain Babar Azam is the senior man in the team and probably the most dependable batsman as well. The quality of Babar Azam is to play longer innings in shorter format which eventually makes a strong case for the captain of the team. 

Vice-Captain ( Lendl Simmons ) - The West Indian opener scored heavily in the recent past and he is a great candidate for the Vice captain of the team. Simmons scored a lot of runs in the last two home series which was against South Africa and Australia and he can take on Pakistan’s bowling attack.
