Pakistan will be looking to take complete advantage of home conditions and a depleted West Indies squad when they take on the Caribbean giants in a three-T20I series starting from Sunday.
Pakistan and West Indies will face each other at the National Stadium on April 1,2 and 3, with both teams looking towards a different goal.
A 3-0 sweep will see Pakistan open up a four-point gap between them and Australia, as the former lead the latter by a decimal point at the moment.
Meanwhile, a 3-0 sweep in favour of the Windies will take them to second spot as Pakistan will lose their top spot.
The Windies, who are currently in fifth position with 115 points, will slip to 111 points and seventh position, behind England and South Africa, if Pakistan claim a 3-0 series win.
A 2-1 win for Pakistan will not change the position or points for either side while a 2-1 win for the Windies will pull Pakistan down to 123 points, just two more than third-placed India. The Windies will then be on 119 points.
