Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq won the toss and opted to field first in the fifth and final one-day international against West Indies on Wednesday.

West Indies, who trail the five-match series 2—1, had to leave out fast bowler Kemar Roach due to a back injury. Tino Best will get his first match of the series.

Pakistan made one change from the team that won here by six wickets under the Duckworth/Lewis Method last Sunday, bringing in seamer Asad Ali in place of Wahab Riaz.
