Multan: Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to bat in the second day-night international against the West Indies in Multan on Friday.

The home team, leading 1-0 in the three-match series after winning by five wickets on Wednesday, brought 20-year-old fast bowler Mohammad Wasim Junior in place of out-of-form Hasan Ali.

The West Indies replaced fast bowler Anderson Phillip for Jayden Seales who suffered a side strain after the first game.

The series is part of One-Day Super League -- qualification round of the 2023 World Cup -- in which each match carries ten points.

The last match will be on Sunday -- also in Multan.
