Having already sealed the series, Pakistan is likely to make few changes to their playing XI. Fast bowler Shaheen Afridi could be handed the debut and that means either Mohammad Amir or Hasan Ali will be rested. It will be interesting to see whether Ahmed Shehzad gets a game or not as the top order has been in good touch. Fakhar Zaman did well in the first T20I and then Babar Azam and Hussain Talat dished out superb performances.
Windies, on there hand, will continue to miss services of Veerasammy Permaul who was injured during the first match. Windies had named only 13-man squad for the tour, so they will have limited choices available. Andre McCarthy is likely to get a game after warming the bench in the first two matches.
