We are ready for this Test series as a team

Pakistan team captain Shan Masood said in a press conference held a day before the first test match that we are fully prepared for this test series against the West Indies team. The playing style of the Windies team is quite different and hence we will have to face challenges but a lot depends on how you deal with such challenges in test cricket. We got a lot of confidence from the test series win at home against England and we will try to continue the same rhythm in this series as well.
