Pakistan cricket team has departed for the tour of the West Indies from Manchester in England on Wednesday.
The development
was confirmed by the Pakistan Cricket Board in a press release.
Babar Azam-led
unit will face the Caribbean giants in five T20Is which will be followed by two
Tests.
The Men-in-Green
lost both series against England on the recently concluded tour.
In the 50-over
format, the home team — despite making last-minute changes in the squad after
seven members from the original contingent tested positive for coronavirus — clean
swept the visitors after winning all three matches comfortably by nine wickets,
52 runs and three wickets margin.
In the 20-over
format, the contest was a much closer one where the Green Caps secured a win in
the first match by 32 runs.
However, England
made a grand comeback and registered back-to-back wins by 45 runs and three
wickets to seal the series with the eventual score of 2-1.
