The prevailing political unrest and “vagaries of other events” forced the Pakistan Cricket Board to shift the upcoming ODI series between Pakistan and West Indies to Multan.
According to sources on Thursday, the cricket governing body in Pakistan has received directives from the federal government to shift the series to Multan and subsequently, the PCB has started sorting out the hotel and flight bookings for the players.
The sources informed that the board officials are in constant touch with the government as the decision on the host venue for the series must be taken this week to complete the logistics on time.
The training camp of the Pakistan team is scheduled to start from June 1, while West Indies will arrive in Pakistan on June 5.
It is important to mention here that the three-match ODI series is scheduled from June 8 to 12 at the Pindi Cricket Stadium. The matches are part of the ICC World Cup Super League.
