Pakistan take on West Indies in their opening clash of the 2019 World Cup in Nottingham on Friday.

Sarfraz Ahmed’s team enter the match on the back of 10 ODI defeats and need to hit the ground running. The Windies, on the other hand, will be confident of their game after blasting 421 runs in their warm-up match against the Kiwis.

Pakistan have decided to bench young quicks Shaheen Afridi and Mohammad Hasnain, going in with an experienced attack. How they handle an explosive Windies line-up that includes Chris Gayle and Andre Russell will be interesting to see.
