Pakistan's men's cricket team will play a two-match Test series against the West Indies from July 25 to August 6, 2026, aiming to keep their World Test Championship final hopes alive.

West Indies, captained by Roston Chase and coached by Daren Sammy, seek to build on recent successes and honor the legacy of Sir Garfield Sobers during their first Test since his passing.
