Lahore: After the refusal of West Indies to play inside Pakistan, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to cancel its ‘A’ team’s series against the Caribbean side.
However, the Caribbean have offered Pakistan to play in the United Arab Emirates but the PCB is not interested to host the series outside the country.
The West Indies A team was due to play in Pakistan as part of a reciprocal tour…but the West Indians recently informed the PCB that they would not send their team to play in Pakistan due to security concerns and instead offered to play the series at any neutral venue namely the UAE,” Asian Age quoted sources as saying.
No Test-playing nation has visited Pakistan since March, 2009 when terrorists attacked the Sri Lankan team in Lahore.
