Toss delayed by 15 mins

Bish says the rain has cleared up.

West Indies have won the toss and have opted to bat

Babar Azam: Honestly we would have also batted first. The message is always positive, execute your plans and believe in yourself. We have a couple of changes - Shafique comes in for Shan. We have four changes, two debutants. We have to play more competitive cricket. Because of the conditions, the demands are different and that's why we have gone with the spinner.

Roston Chase: We are going to bat first. The wicket looks pretty good and we want to make first use. I want the guys to follow the processess from the last three games. We are going with the same position. We have spinners as well.

@mikesiva

Pakistan leave out Abbas?

yep....he says based on conditions he goes for the spinner

Babar Azam

 [On leaving out Mohammad Abbas despite him being Pakistan's leading wicket-taker in the series] No, no. I told you that because of the conditions. The condition demand is different, so the condition is like different, so I put one spinner on.
