Now they have arrived in the UAE ahead of what might have been the daunting prospect of a series against the world champions West Indies with their spirits renewed.
"Our last one-day series was not good, but after winning the fifth match and the T20, our morale is very high," Sarfraz Ahmed, Pakistan’s captain, said.
"Now we are confident we can win the T20 and ODI series.
"We are not over confident at all. We have prepared well and we also practised in the searing heat.
"We will try to keep the momentum gained from that win against England going into the future."
