West Indies postpones Pak ODI series

January 25, 2013 12:14 IST

The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) has postponed their One-day International series at home against Pakistan, according to reports.

Pakistan will now play two Test matches during its Caribbean tour as West Indies has deferred the ODI series, according to a report from Geo News.

Pakistan was to play two Test matches and five ODIs during its West Indies tour in June-July this year.

According to earlier reports, West Indies were scheduled to host Pakistan from June to July but they also have a tri-series against India and Sri Lanka during that time and to avoid the clash with Pakistan, the WICB had asked the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) if their Caribbean tour could be rescheduled to August.

However, this would also interfere with the PCB's slim hopes of hosting India.
