West Indian batting isn't the best in the test format. Shai Hope will be the key batter at the top. Expect Joshua Da Silva to give his team a solid start. 

Jason Holder is the most important player in the West Indian test team. He contributes with both bat as well as the ball. 

Pakistan has an excellent batting lineup. Apart from Babar Azam, Fawad Alam and Mohammed Rizwan comprise a solid middle-order. Azhar Ali at the top brings quality to the lineup. 

Shaheen Afridi and Hasan Ali are in great form currently. The two new ball bowlers have the ability to run riot in the first hour of the play.
