The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) today announced the details of the West Indies men’s cricket team’s tour of Pakistan for two matches of the ICC World Test Championship.
The West Indies cricket team will arrive in Islamabad on January 6 and will play a 3-day match against Pakistan Shaheens at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium from January 10 to 12 before playing both the Tests of the series against Pakistan in Multan.
The first Test will be played from January 17 to 21, while the second Test will be played from January 25 to 29.
