Pakistan will be high on confidence after their impressive journey in the T20I World Cup 2021, followed by their dominant tour of Bangladesh, where they steamrolled the hosts by 3-0.
On the other hand, the Windies, who were eliminated in the first round of the multi-team tournament, would be looking to start the tour positively.
Notably, the tourists will be without the services of veteran Kieron Pollard, who has been ruled out due to a hamstring injury. Further, Sheldon Cottrell, Roston Chase and Kyle Mayers will also miss out after testing COVID-19 positive ahead of the T20I series opener.
