Match Prediction: West Indies Will Win the Match

It's all set at the Brian Lara Stadium, the West Indies facing Pakistan in the second match of the three-ODI series on Sunday, August 10. The home team would surely love to bounce back from the narrow 2-1 T20I & 1-0 ODI defeat. Pakistan comes fresh off its T20I victories between the two teams and will look to be back-to-back winners. With the return of Babar Azam and the captain Mohammad Rizwan to add firepower to the lineup, Pakistan will view the first ODI as essential preparation for the Asia Cup.

WI vs PAK Probable Winners:

Pakistan is expected to win the game against the West Indies based on their current form. Shaheen Afridi, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Hasan Nawaz all performed well in the series opener, and the team leadership will be looking for more of the same in this game. Considering the team combination, Pakistan is expected to win this match.

A well-fought match resulted in a defeat for the West Indies and Pakistan as the winner of the day. A well-entertained matchup at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium, Trinidad and Tobago. West Indies, batting first, scored 280 with the help of multiple well-deserved innings. Pakistan in this match performed in a much more compact way; with the ball and with the bat, the visitor dominated over the host team. 

Toss and the first innings:

Mohammad Rizwan, skipper of Pakistan's ODI setup, asked West Indies to bat first after winning the toss. Starting strong with their plan, Pakistan took only 5 balls to draw the first blood of the game. WI opener Brandon King departed only with 4 runs. Evin Lewis and Keacy Carty helped the West Indies to bring back the fight after sustaining the early damage. Lewis scored 60, and Carty went for 30. In the middle, Captain Shai Hope and Roston Chase also tried their best to humble the touring side bowlers. In the lower-middle order, Gudakesh Motie's quick-fire 31 off 18 allowed West Indies to post 280 on the board. Shaheen Afridi was the best bowler for Pakistan in the match by clinching 4 wickets. 

Second innings:

The West Indies did not take too much time to get a breakthrough. Saim Ayub's early departure came as a ray of hope for the Caribbean. It was mainly Pakistan's middle order, which turned the table. Two experienced batters of the team, skipper Rizwan (53) and Babar Azam (47), stood tall against the firing West Indies bowling attack. Salman Ali Agha's wicket made the match more interesting until Hassan Nawaz (63*) and Hussain Talat (41*) joined the chase. These two batters took the match away from the home team. Pakistan won the first of the 3-match ODI by 5 wickets and 7 balls to spare.

Coach Sammy Focused on World Cup Qualification

The West Indies are going into the series after losing the T20I series 2-1 at home. Head coach Daren Sammy said this ODI series is important for the team’s chances to qualify for the 2027 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.

“Pakistan will be a different challenge as we push for automatic qualification,” Sammy said. “Our main goal is to qualify, but we also want to build a winning mindset and team unity for long-term success.”

He added, “Playing against stronger teams like Pakistan gives us a chance to earn important ranking points that will help us in the road to the World Cup.”

West Indies are currently ranked 10th in the ICC Men’s ODI Team Rankings. Pakistan are ranked 4th, behind India, New Zealand, and Australia.

West Indies Squad for Pakistan ODI Series:

Shai Hope (captain), Jewel Andrew, Jediah Blades, Keacy Carty, Roston Chase, Matthew Forde, Justin Greaves, Amir Jangoo, Shamar Joseph, Brandon King, Evin Lewis, Gudakesh Motie, Sherfane Rutherford, Jayden Seales, Romario Shepherd.

Cricket West Indies (CWI) has unveiled a 15-member squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against Pakistan, set to be played at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad on August 8, 10, and 12. The series forms the final leg of the “Full Ah Energy” home season and is a key step in the team’s preparation for the 2027 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.

Led by Shai Hope, the squad continues to feature the core group that delivered recent series wins against England and Bangladesh at home and showed promise during the UK tour earlier this year.

Notably, Romario Shepherd returns to the side after missing recent matches due to workload management. His inclusion adds all-around depth to a side already brimming with youthful talent. Also retaining their places are 18-year-old Jewel Andrew, promising left-arm quick Jediah Blades, and Amir Jangoo, who scored a century on ODI debut against Bangladesh.
