Pakistan cricket has been going through turbulence ever since the forgettable bus-attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in 2009. Teams were apprehensive about travelling to Pakistan and consequently, international cricket came to a halt in the nation owing to terrorist attacks. However, Zimbabwe toured the nation in 2015 and the series marked the return of international cricket to Pakistan.

In 2017, a World XI team led by Francois du Plessis toured the nation for a three-match T20 series after which the Sri Lankan team visited the country for a solitary T20 match. However, on the eve of Sri Lanka’s game against Pakistan, several Lankan cricketers backed off and subsequently, Sri Lanka had to field a second-string team in the final game of the series.

West Indies vs Pakistan in March

After Zimbabwe, World XI and Pakistan, the Windies were set to tour Pakistan for a T20 International series in November 2017. However, heavy smog and the Windies players’ participation in the Bangladesh Premier League led to the postponement of the series. However, as per reports in brecorder.com, Najam Sethi, the chief of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) recently said that the series will now be hosted at the end of March at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.

The third edition of the Pakistan Super League will begin on the 22nd of February and continue for four weeks till 25th of March. The T20 International series is most likely to be staged after the completion of the domestic T20 league, which came as a surprise to the fans. Meanwhile, the Windies will be the third team to tour Pakistan and it won’t be bewildering if the visitors are welcomed gleefully by the supporters in Pakistan.

Here’s the probable schedule of the series between the two cricketing giants  

March 29, Thursday – Pakistan vs Windies, 1st T20I Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore

March 31, Saturday –  Pakistan vs Windies, 2nd T20I Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore

April 01, Sunday – Pakistan vs Windies, 3rd T20I Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
