West Indies captain Darren Sammy won the toss and elected to field in the fourth one-day International against Pakistan on Monday at Kensington Oval here.

West Indies have brought Ramnaresh Sarwan in to replace fast bowler Andre Russell, while Pakistan made two changes, bringing Usman Salahuddin and Tanvir Ahmed in to replace Umar Akmal and Wahab Riaz.

The Pakistanis lead the five match series 3-0, following an eight-wicket victory in the first ODI two Saturdays ago at the Beausejour Cricket Ground in St. Lucia, where they also won the second ODI by seven wickets last Monday, while they took a series-clinching, three-wicket victory in the ODI last Thursday at this venue.

The victories meant that Pakistan have now won their last eight ODIs against West Indies spread over the last four years, including their 10-wicket victory in a recent World Cup quarter-final in Bangladesh.

The final ODI will be played on Thursday at the Guyana National Stadium.

Teams:

West Indies: Darren Sammy (captain), Lendl Simmons (wicketkeeper), Devon Smith, Darren Bravo, Marlon Samuels, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Kirk Edwards, Dwayne Bravo, Kemar Roach, Devendra Bishoo, Ravi Rampaul

Pakistan: Shahid Afridi (captain), Ahmed Shehzad, Mohammad Hafeez, Asad Shafiq, Misbah-ul-Haq, Usman Salahuddin, Mohammad Salman (wicketkeeper), Hammad Azam, Saeed Ajmal, Junaid Khan, Tanvir Ahmed
