West Indies will aim to revive their ODI fortunes in 2025 when they take on Pakistan in the first of three ODIs, starting on August 8 (Friday). The Shai Hope-led side are coming into the series on the back of 1-2 series loss against the same opponent a few days back.

Ranked 10th in the ICC Men’s ODI rankings, West Indies have been in terrible form in 50-over cricket as they managed to win just a single game out of their six ODIs in 2025. Their last ODI series was against England which West Indies lost by a 0-3 margin.

Pakistan‘s record in ODIs aren’t good either. Despite being ranked 4th in the world, Pakistan are coming into this series after a 0-3 loss against New Zealand in an away series. With the likes of Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah, Pakistan are clearly start favourites on paper in Trinidad.
