Preview:
West Indies Women will take on Pakistan Women in the 3-match T20I series, which is starting from 30th June. With not much International exposure in recent times, it’s a perfect opportunity for both teams to come back to the highest level. West Indies last played a T20I was in September 2020, where they lost the series were badly against England by 5-0. On a turf, they are a completely different side and hoping to make a good start in this series.
Meanwhile, Pakistan Women have named a 26-member squad for T20Is, ODIs also for the unofficial matches. Pakistan too haven’t played much of a T20I match in the last 4 months. They lost the away T20I series against South Africa by 2-1 in February. This time around they need to back themselves and perform well.

Pitch Report:
It’s not a high-scoring venue, the batters need to toil hard-to-score runs on this slow surface. The wicket may slow down in the latter half of the match and hence batting first is a good option.
