West Indies host 3-Test Caribbean series against Pakistan
Published on Jan 12, 2017, 10:24 am AST
West Indies' Jason Holder appeals for a leg-before decision against Yasir Shah of Pakistan during the third Test in Sharjah on November 2, 2016.
The West Indies will host Pakistan for three Test matches, three One-Day Internationals (ODI) and two Twenty20 fixtures during the Asian nation's tour of the Caribbean.
Both the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and Pakistan Cricket Board agreed on a schedule where Pakistan arrives in the Caribbean on March 27 and will start their campaign with the first T20 match at the Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad on March 31.
The Twenty20 matches are scheduled for T&T, with the three ODIs in Guyana, before the teams travel to Jamaica, Barbados and Dominica for each of the Test matches.
WICB Manager of Operations, Roland Holder thinks this series will offer the home team an additional opportunity in the busy cricket year to improve its ranking. "Any series against Pakistan always poses an interesting contest for the West Indies.â€
Schedule
Friday, March 31 1st T20 Queen's Park Oval
Sunday, April 2 2nd T20 Queen's Park Oval
Friday, April 7 1st ODI Guyana National Stadium
Sunday, April 9 2nd ODI Guyana National Stadium
Tuesday, April 11 3rd ODI Guyana National Stadium
Saturday, April 15 3-Day Match Trelawny Stadium
Friday, April 22 1st Test Sabina Park
Sunday April 30 2nd Test Kensington Oval
Wednesday, May 10 3rd Test Windsor Park
Both teams met in a three-test series in Dubai last October which Pakistan won by 2-1 margin.
