Pakistan and West Indies will collide in the penultimate Test series in the 2023-25 World Test Championship, starting with the first Test at the Multan Cricket Ground in Multan from Friday (January 17).
Shan Masood-led side will look to finish the current WTC cylcle on a high when they welcome Kraigg Brathwaite-led West Indies for their first visit to Pakistan for a red ball contest since 2006.

West Indies are currently positioned at the bottom of the ICC World Test Championship table, while Pakistan are only a position above in eighth. Both sides can finish a little higher in the standings with wins in the two-Test series.
The series opener will be staged in Multan from January 17 to 21 before the second Test also takes place at the same venue from January 25 to 29. This will be the first Test meeting between the two sides since 2021.
Pakistan and West Indies last faced each other in the red-ball format in 2021 in West Indies, where the two-match series was levelled 1-1, while in West Indies' previous visit to Pakistan, the Caribbean side lost the three-match series 0-2.
Pakistan have made as many as seven changes due to injury and workload management from their tour to South Africa, while West Indies too have made a few changes of their own since their last Test assignment.
