As Pakistan are all set to square off against West Indies in the three-match Twenty20 International (T20I) series, Pakistan may lose the top spot in the ICC T20I rankings if they loss to Windies 3-0.

Pakistan have the opportunity to firm up their position at the top of the MRF Tyres ICC T20I Team Rankings when they will face Windies in Karachi from April 1 to 3 .

A 3-0 victory will take the Sarfraz Ahmed-led side four points clear of Australia, who had closed in on them following a 2-0 series win over New Zealand last month.

Pakistan and Australia are both currently on 126 points, with Pakistan ahead on decimal points.

The Windies, who are currently in fifth position with 115 points, will slip to 111 points and seventh position, behind England and South Africa, in such a scenario.

A 2-1 win for Pakistan will not change the position or points for either side while a 2-1 win for the Windies will pull Pakistan down to 123 points, just two more than third-placed India. The Windies will be on 119 points.

In case the Jason Mohammed-led side are victorious by a 3-0 margin, they will overtake Pakistan with the teams finishing on 122 and 120 points, respectively.
