Pakistan Women will travel to the Caribbean for three T20Is and five ODIs, with their A team set to shadow the senior side for an additional six matches. All the matches will be hosted by Antigua after the Pakistan contingent arrives on June 23, exactly a week before the first T20I. The ODI series will be played from July 7 to 18.
\nAs for the A teams, they will play three T20s, which will be played on the same day and at the same venues as the T20Is as \u201cdouble-headers\u201d, followed by three one-dayers from June 30 to July 16. All matches will be played at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium and the Coolidge Cricket Ground.
\nThis is the latest step from Cricket West Indies (CWI) in their bid to expand women\u2019s cricket in the Caribbean. It comes soon after rookies Qiana Joseph and Kaysia Schultz were offered their first West Indies central contracts, for the 2021-22 season.
\n\u201cThis is a very significant home tour for our women and we are delighted that our counterparts at the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have worked with us to arrange these two series despite all the challenges we face with Covid-19,\u201dJimmy Adams, CWI\u2019s director of cricket, said in a media release. \u201cCWI continues to invest in our international Women\u2019 program by hosting extended High-Performance camps between tours, two of which have already been held this year.
\nIn addition, the opportunity to host our first-ever \u2018A\u2019 Team Series is brilliant, as it means that our developing players will get the chance to compete against high-quality international opponents and push for selection to the senior team.\u201d
\nThis will be West Indies Women\u2019s first international series at home since the pandemic hit.
\nIn September last year, they had toured England, where they were blanked 5-0. The upcoming series will also be West Indies Women\u2019s first under Courtney Walsh after he had been appointed to the post in October 2020 following the UK tour. Walsh had also worked with the women\u2019s team during the T20 World Cup held in Australia in February and March last year. The management will look to use the Pakistan ODIs as preparation for the ODI World Cup Qualifier in December in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
