We are ready for this test series as a team
Pakistani team captain Shan Masood said in the press conference held a day before the first Test match that we are fully prepared for this Test series against the West Indies team. The style of playing of the Windies team is quite different and in such a situation we will also have to face challenges but in Test cricket a lot depends on how you deal with such challenges. We got a lot of confidence from the Test series win against England at home and we will try to continue the same momentum in this series as well.
