Having lost the T20I series 1-2 against Pakistan a few days ago, West Indies will aim to turn the tables in ODIs, the first of which starts on August 8 at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium in Trinidad. Ranked 10th in the world, West Indies didn’t had a good 2025 so far. In six ODIs so far this year, the Shai Hope-led side were able to win just one game and lost four. One game ended in no result.
The series against Pakistan also serves a perfect opportunity for West Indies to change the statistic and secure an automatic automatic qualification for 2027 ODI World Cup. The West Indies team will be bolstered by the return of all-rounder Romario Shepherd, who is making a comeback to the national ODI side since last year.
On the other hand, Pakistan are led by Mohammad Rizwan in the 50-over format with T20I skipper Salman Ali Agha as his deputy. It also features Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, and Mohammad Nawaz, besides promising talents such as Hasan Nawaz and Sufyan Muqeem.
