PAK vs WI Test Series: West Indies Set To Play In Pakistan After Almost Two Decades
The West Indies test team will come to Pakistan to play a two-match test series in January 2025. The last time the Windies played test matches in Pakistan was back in November 2006.
The PAK vs WI test matches will be a part of the ICC World Test Championship 2023-2025. On 23rd December, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced the revised schedule of the West Indies tour of Pakistan 2025.
The Carribean team will arrive in Pakistan on January 6th 2025 and the matches will take place from January 17th till 29th.
The tour will also include a three-day warm-up match between the tourists and Pakistan Shaheens from January 10-12 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
The two test matches will be played back to back at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
Initially, the PAK vs WI 1st test was set to be played at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi, but as per PCB’s announcement, both test matches will be played at the same venue now.
This marks the Windies’ first Test series on Pakistani turf in 19 years.
Although the West Indies haven’t played a Test series in Pakistan since 2006, they have visited the country three times since 2018 for white-ball matches, including ODIs and T20Is.
It is important to mention that Pakistan currently stands at the seventh spot in the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) 2023-25 points table with a PCT of 33.33 from 10 matches, having won four and lost six games.
On the other hand, West Indies are at the ninth place with a PCT of 24.24, having played 11 matches, securing just two wins and suffering seven losses.
Pakistan and West Indies’ head to head test record shows the Men in Green having the upper hand with their 21 wins out of the 54 matches played between the two teams.
The Windies have emerged victorious 18 times, whereas the remaining 15 matches have ended in a draw.
