KINGSTOWN: Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez won the toss and chose to bat first against the West Indies in second and final T20 International at the Arnos Vale Stadium in St Vincent on Sunday.
Seeking victory and a 2-0 sweep of the series that would lift them ahead of the Caribbean side to second in the international rankings, the visitors have made three changes to the team that won by two wickets off the final ball of the match on Saturday.
Opening batsman Nasir Jamshed and left-arm pacers Junaid Khan and Mohammad Irfan are omitted. Taking their places are experienced T20 seamer Sohail Tanvir alongside fellow fast-medium bowler Asad Ali and batsman Haris Sohail, both of whom are making their T20 International debuts.
West Indies have made just one change, all-rounder Christopher Barnwell coming in for fast bowler Shannon Gabriel, who proved expensive in the opening match despite taking three wickets.
Teams:
West Indies - D. Sammy (captain), C. Gayle, J. Charles, M. Samuels, L. Simmons, D.J. Bravo, K. Pollard, D. Sammy, C. Barnwell, S. Narine, T. Best.
Pakistan - Mohammad Hafeez (captain), Ahmed Shehzad, Hammad Azam, Umar Amin, Haris Sohail, Umar Akmal, Shahid Afridi, Sohail Tanvir, Saeed Ajmal, Zulfiqar Babar, Asad Ali.
