Cricket bookies for international games only have West Indies vs Pakistan odds for the first T20I match of the series now, so we will only talk about the series opener in Florida rather than the entire series. Here’s a look at the current odds:
Pakistan start the series as the underdogs, but they have an excellent record in T20Is on Caribbean soil. The Shaheens lost their first match in the Caribbean in 2011, but since then, they’ve won three away series against the two-time T20I World Champions.
This is the first T20I bilateral series between the two teams since their 2021 series in Pakistan, in which the home side won all three matches. WI vs PAK cricket T20I betting predictions on platforms for online betting in Pakistan will take into account Pakistan’s strong head-to-head record against the West Indies. However, both teams have been far from their best lately.
West Indies hosted Pakistan for the first time in T20Is when the two teams locked horns in Gros Islet for a one-off T20I match. Lendl Simmons and Darren Bravo steered West Indies to a commendable total of 150. Pakistan fell eight runs short in their chase, with Devendra Bishoo taking 4 for 17.
A Mohammad Hafeez-led Pakistan side came to the West Indies two years later and whitewashed the hosts in a two-match series. Pakistan returned for a four-match series in 2017 and won 3-1.
West Indies last played Pakistan at home in 2021 in a rain-interrupted four-match series. Only one match was completed in that series, which the away side won. So, the West Indies are yet to secure a home series win against Pakistan in T20Is.
The West Indian batsmen performed well in their latest series against Australia, but it wasn’t enough to avoid a 5-0 hammering. Earlier, they beat Ireland 1-0 in a three-match series and lost 3-0 to Bangladesh.
Pakistan recently played two T20I series against Bangladesh. They won the home series 3-0, but lost 2-1 in Bangladesh. Back in March, they lost 4-1 to New Zealand.

Pakistan have an incredible record against the West Indies in the shortest format of the game. So, we start our 2025 T20I West Indies vs Pakistan predictions by predicting a win for the away side. Both teams have shown similar form in recent months, so we feel sportsbooks are overvaluing the hosts.
So, Pakistan presents a nice opportunity for an undervalued bet. They have lost in three of their last four series, but Pakistan have historically done well in the West Indies, and the hosts have been quite out of sorts lately. Pakistan will be counting on Saim Ayub and Fakhar Zaman to provide a flying start since West Indian bowlers have been struggling with the new ball.
West Indies have batted well in recent games, but Pakistan have a formidable bowling attack. With Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Salman Agha, Hussain Talat, and Mohammad Nawaz at the helm, they should be able to contain the hosts.

West Indian bowlers have conceded more than 16.5 runs in the first two overs of the opposition innings in two of the last three games. Ayub and Zaman did not enjoy batting in Bangladesh much, but the conditions in Florida will not be as difficult as they were in Dhaka.
Expect the runs to flow in the first few overs, given that the West Indian bowlers have not been too disciplined early in the game. So, Pakistan should take advantage of this and get off to a fast start.

The average first innings score at Central Broward Park & Broward County Stadium is 169. But the boundaries are quite short, so batters will feel encouraged to go for some big hits. The West Indies have been good with the bat, and Pakistan should take advantage of the West Indies’ weak bowling. We will wrap up our 2025 cricket WI vs PAK betting picks by forecasting both teams to score over 180 runs in this game.
Pakistan should continue their strong form against the West Indies and reward backers with some handsome returns.
