West Indies Team News & Playing 11
Roston Chase has rescued his team on a couple of occasions now in this series. He is leading the runs charts with 233 runs which includes one century and one fifty. His 131 in the first innings of the last match is the highest individual score by a West Indian batsman so far in the series and he will be the key man for his team in this third test. Jason Holder has contributed with both bat and ball. The allrounder has struck a fifty in each game and has taken seven wickets. Shannon Gabriel took a four-fer in the first innings followed by a five-fer in the second of the previous match. He is looking in top form and will be the biggest threat for Pakistan with the ball.

Pakistan Team News & Playing 11
All eyes will be on skipper Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan who will be playing their final international match of their career. While the former has scored the most runs for Pakistan in the series which includes two scores of 99, the latter is yet to make a big score. So the team will expect Younis to hit form for one last time before hanging up his shoes. While Mohammad Amir will be the one to watch out for in the pace department, Yasir Shah who is the highest wicket-taker with 17 wickets in the series will be Pakistan's best spin option.

WI vs Pak 3rd Test Betting Odds
Pakistan recorded their second-lowest test total against the West Indies in the last match and despite suffering an embarrassing defeat, bookmakers believe that the tourists will bounce back from this defeat to win the series. Pakistan therefore start off as favorites to win this third test at 1.91 with Betfair and 1.83 with Bet365. West Indies are known to be highly inconsistent and so they start as distant outsiders at 5.5 with both betfair and bet365. A draw is up at 3.3 and 3 respectively.
WI vs Pak 3rd Test Prediction
The Windsor Park has produced only one drawn test out of the four it has hosted till date. And of the remaining three, two have ended on the third day itself which means that the chances of getting a result in this match are strong. West Indies will be rejuvenated with their win in the last game but they will still need to put in a lot of effort to prove that their win was not a fluke. Pakistan will be disappointed after botching up a good opportunity to clinch the series at Barbados itself. But they will look to hit back hard and give their legends Misbah and Younis a proper send-off. We thus predict Pakistan to win this third test.
Final Verdict: Back Pakistan to beat West Indies in the third test at 1.91 with betfair and 1.83 with bet365.
