Pitch conditions and Pakistan's winning chances
Pakistan's hope of winning this game is solely dependent on the form of Yasir Shah.
The surface in Windsor Park Dominica is filled with cracks, and it will favor the slow bowlers.
Yasir Shah has that extra ability to turn the ball in unexpected ways, and if he succeeds in finding the rhythm, things will not be that easy for the West Indian batsmen.

Yasir has bowled 33 overs in this Test and has picked three wickets.
For Pakistan, Mohammed Abbas and Azhar Ali picked one wicket each.
The fourth-day gameplay is quite crucial for both the sides. If Pakistan succeeds in wrapping up the West Indian first innings before the lunch, they can pressurize the hosts by giving an assailable yet taunting total as the winning target. On the other hand, West Indies will be most likely trying for a draw rather than taking unwanted risks which may take the game away from them.
