TRINIDAD: The decisive third and final ODI between West Indies and Pakistan, scheduled to be played at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy on Tuesday, is likely to be affected by rain.
With the series tied at 1-1, the two teams will compete in Tarouba, with the match set to begin at 6:30 PM (Pakistan Standard Time).
However, similar to the second ODI, which was shortened by 15 overs due to continuous rain, the final match is also at risk of being affected by the weather.
Forecasts predict intermittent rain throughout the day, raising the possibility of multiple interruptions.
According to AccuWeather, Tarouba will remain mostly cloudy with a high of 33°C and a RealFeel of 40°C.
Light rain is expected in the morning, followed by brief afternoon showers, bringing around 7 mm of precipitation over roughly 2.5 hours.
Winds from the east are forecast at 13 km/h, with gusts touching 33 km/h. The chance of rain stands at 85%, with a 25% probability of thunderstorms.
Cloud cover is expected to be 76%, while the UV index will stay moderate at 5.
The stakes could not be higher for the West Indies, who are aiming for their first bilateral ODI series victory against Pakistan since 1991, when they won 2-0 in a three-match contest.
The home team made a strong comeback in the second ODI, leveling the series by successfully chasing a revised target of 181 runs after losing five wickets.
