WI vs PAK Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the First test between West Indies and Pakistan. This series will kickstart the WTC cycle for both these teams and points are up for grabs. West Indies are coming to this test on the back of a disappointing series loss against SA at home, while Pakistan is coming after winning in Zim and have won all of their previous 4 tests leading up to this. The forecast predicts rain on all 5 days of the match so we have to hope that there is enough play to produce a result.
