Overview: The torrential rain in Guyana caused the 3rd game of the series to be called off. The rain god hasn't been kind on this series as 2 games were called off midway through the match. The final game of the series is a must win encounter for the Men in Maroon, whereas the lads from Pakistan will also be eyeing to get one more win under their belt. The weather looks iffy and fingers will be crossed in the dressing room of the hosts as they are trailing behind in the series with a solitary game left. A clinical performance in the 2nd T20 handed Pakistan a victory, on the other hand West Indies's inability to rotate strike in the middle overs left them with a humongous task to handle in the slog overs.
West Indies- Bizarre or brilliant has been the performance of West Indies so far in the series. They have been excellent in the slog overs with both the bat and ball but their inability to rotate strike rate mounted too much pressure on them while batting in the slog overs.West Indies will be happy with the way they started in the powerplay in the 3rd T20 before the heavens opened up. Gayle's form is now becoming a serious cause of concern, but knowing his destructive ability West Indies will persist with him and hope the Jamaican lad comes to the party. It's a must win encounter for the West Indies and their team would want its top order to fire at the right time. Pooran played a breathtaking knock in the 2nd T20 but it was all too late. Hopefully from the West Indies point of view, Pollard will not be asked to clean up the mess left by the top order again. Windies added Russell to add some fire power in the middle order and will be optimistic of him providing support to Pollard and Pooran.
Pakistan- A hard fought victory and a much needed one came for them in the 2nd T20. The pitch in Guyana for the 2nd T20 was sluggish and ideal for their team. They will be hoping that the explosive opener Sharjeel gives them a brisk start and the middle order can follow the suit. Though, Pakistan won the match,they will be aware of their inability to score quickly in the death overs and the batting form of veteran Hafeez which is still a big concern for Pakistan if their top order collapses. The bowling department has executed the plans perfectly and is further boosted by the off-spin and experience of Hafeez.
Pitch & Weather Report- The forecast of Tuesday is iffy and the fans will be praying to get some action. The pitch here in Guyana has provided assistance to the spinners and change of pace will be the key for the seamers. Batsman will need to make the full use of powerplay and the rotation of strike in the middle overs will be the key.
