Pakistan and Australia are both currently on 126 points, with Pakistan ahead on decimal points.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Windies, who are currently in fifth position with 115 points, will slip to 111 points and seventh position, behind England and South Africa, in such a scenario.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>A 2-1 win for Pakistan will not change the position or points for either side while a 2-1 win for the Windies will pull Pakistan down to 123 points, just two more than third-placed India. The Windies will be on 119 points.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In case the Jason Mohammed-led side are victorious by a 3-0 margin, they will overtake Pakistan with the teams finishing on 122 and 120 points, respectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-series\/west-indies-tour-of-pakistan-2018\/fixtures\">West Indies vs Pakistan T20I Series Schedule<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>ICC Media Release<\/p>\r\n",
