West Indies will take on Pakistan in the first T20I on Friday, August 01. The hosts are searching for a win after five consecutive losses against Australia in the recently concluded T20 series. Meanwhile, the visitors would also be aiming to perform better after suffering a T20 series loss against Bangladesh. Both Pakistan and the West Indies are known to be extremely unpredictable and volatile. Whichever team holds its nerve will end up winning this match.
The hosts, Windies, would be eager to get back to winning ways after being completely outplayed by the Aussies. The Caribbean side is known to pride itself on the shortest format of the game. However, for the past few years, their form has tapered off a bit in T2oIs, failing to even qualify for the semis for the past two World Cup editions.
On the other hand, Pakistan has shown peak inconsistency, as they have lost against the USA, Bangladesh, and Zimbabwe. While on some days they can beat the best teams, on other days they can also perform badly against a minnow team.
