Pitch Report
The pitch at the Multan Cricket Stadium is slightly on the slower side with the spinners ruling the roost in the previous game. The batters should enjoy the conditions early on, with little swing on offer for the pacers with the new ball. A change of pace will be key as the match progresses, with the spinners making for an even contest between the bat and ball in the middle overs. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 250-260 being a good total at the venue.
Today’s PAK vs WI Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Shai Hope: Shai Hope has been in decent form in the series, scoring 131 runs at a fair rate. He has a good record in ODI cricket, with his ability to score big runs being key. Although he didn't have the best of outings in the previous game, Hope's experience should hold him in good stead ahead of the game.
Batters
Babar Azam: Babar Azam is the leading runscorer in the series with 180 runs in two matches. He has been in breathtaking form in the format over the last few months, pacing his innings perfectly in the middle overs. With Azam in good touch, he is a must-have in your PAK vs WI Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounders
Shadab Khan: Shadab Khan has had his moments with both the bat and ball in the series. However, he is due for a big performance. While his leg-spin is key in the middle overs, Shadab's batting prowess could play a role in the backend of the innings. Given his skill-set, he is another good addition to your PAK vs WI Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowlers
Akeal Hosein: Akeal Hosein has been the standout bowler for the Windies, stifling batters in the middle overs with his guile and accuracy. Hosein has shown glimpses of his ability with the bat as well. With the conditions suiting Akeal, he could be a handy pick in your PAK vs WI Dream11 fantasy team.
