In Australian and Indian cricket culture, 'the Pakis' is an informal, colloquial shorthand for the Pakistan cricket team — used among cricket fans in the way 'the Windies' refers to the West Indies team. The term carries different weight in different contexts: within South Asian cricket fandom it may be unremarkable, while in British usage it has historically functioned as a racial slur requiring care.
The Pakis won the series convincingly and silenced every doubter.
“He was trying at the time to defuse tensions, saying: "We are working hard to convince both the Indians and the Pakis that there's a way to deal with their problems without going to war." However, he was not quite working hard enough.”

(Australia, India) The Pakistan cricket team.
"Pakis" means the pakistan cricket team. It is one of many casual words teens pick up from friends, social media, music or sport, and on its own it carries no particular warning. If you hear your teen use it, it is fair to ask what they mean by it in their friend group, since meanings drift quickly. Asking out of curiosity rather than alarm tends to keep the conversation open and useful.
"Pakis" is informal English meaning the pakistan cricket team. It is mainly heard in Australian or New Zealand English. A more formal or neutral equivalent would be something like "the pakistan cricket team" expressed in standard vocabulary. A common mistake is to assume "Pakis" can replace its standard equivalent in every register; keep it for spoken or casual situations and use the formal form in writing. If you are a B2 or C1 learner, it is useful to recognise this word when you hear or read it, but think carefully about whether the situation really calls for it before using it yourself.
