Live scorecard and ball-by-ball details
Shaheen Afridi, the 17-year old left-arm fast bowler, was handed an international debut two months after he impressed for Pakistan at the Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand. For the record, West Indies, down 2-0 in the series, elected to bat in the third and final T20I of the short series in Karachi.

Meanwhile, West Indies strengthened their batting by handing a debut to Andre McCarthy in place of Kesrick Williams, the allrounder.
