The openers managed to get 92 runs on the board, as King hit 43 runs — seven 4s and two 6s — off 21 balls and Brooks made 49 runs — two 4s and four 6s — off 31 balls before they were sent packing.
West Indies's skipper Nicholas Pooran had decided to bat first against Pakistan in the match, which resumed after it was hanging in the balance as some Windies players and staff members tested positive for COVID-19.
Later, all of the Windies players and officials tested negative for the virus, and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed that the match was back on track.
The decision for the ODI series will be made after a meeting of two cricket boards. The three-match one-day series is scheduled to begin on Saturday.
Three players from the ODI squad of Windies — wicketkeeper-batsman Shai Hope, left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein, allrounder Justin Greaves — have tested positive for COVID-19.
Pakistan have won the three-match series 2-0, but Windies are looking to end it on a positive note.

Pakistan: Babar Azam (captain), Mohammad Rizwan, Fakhar Zaman, Haider Ali, Iftikhar Ahmed, Asif Ali, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Muhammad Hasnain, Shahnawaz Dahani.
