After a rain-affected four-match T20I series resulting in the visitors’ 1-0 victory, proceedings in the ongoing Pakistan’s tour of West Indies are all set to move to cricket’s ancestral format from today.
The two-match Test series will be played at the Sabina Park as West Indies and Pakistan will resume playing Test cricket after four years. Out of a total of 17 Test series that these two teams have played against each other, West Indies have won five times as compared to Pakistan’s six series victories. Having said that, West Indies haven’t beaten Pakistan in a Test series since 2000.
As is the case with series, their head-to-head match record against each other is also quite close with Pakistan having an advantage. Even in the last five Tests, Pakistan lead by 3-2 against West Indies.

The last time when West Indies and Pakistan had faced each other in a Test was during Pakistan’s tour of West Indies in 2017 in Dominica. Chasing a 304-run target on a Day 5 pitch, West Indies had failed to prevent a 101-run defeat despite all-rounder Roston Chase scoring 101* (239) with the help of 12 fours and a six in a ‘Man of the Match’ effort.
