WICB visits Pakistan to check security

 
Narper 2017-01-07 11:47:37 

The delegation is expected to assess the security situation here and hold talks with local officials, as the WICB continues to mull over whether to accept the PCB’s invitation for the games which would mark the first visit to Pakistan by a major cricketing nation in nearly eight years.

Once the two-match tour goes ahead, Sethi said the PCB would give the greenlight to two T20Is in Florida – also in March – which have been proposed by the WICB.

Jihadists are being misledwink

When Zakaria asks Manji about the promise in the Koran that a martyr in the name of Islam is rewarded with 72 virgins, Manji just smiles and shakes her head. "The word for virgin has been mistranslated," she maintains. "Martyrs would get raisins in heaven, not virgins.
"May 24, 2016

Yes, I am very aware of that interview. These people are trying to rewrite the Quran/history. Try telling a Jihadi he is not entitled to his virgins.

So the WICB will explore sending the B team
And the B team will decline, giving an opportunity to third tier cricketers
I'd say that is a win/win in Hinds' World.

The man with more power over WI players than the WICB

'Eddie Tolchard, an agent who represents many of West Indies' frontline players such as Kieron Pollard, Sunil Narine, Samuel Badree, and Darren Sammy among others, said "whilst there is an obvious keenness to support international cricket returning to Pakistan, we and our players will always take the advice from FICA on this matter.'

 
Narper 2017-01-13 11:00:19 

West Indies' proposed tour to Pakistan for two T20Is in mid-March is off the table, multiple sources have confirmed to ESPNcricinfo. The WICB rejected the PCB's proposal for the tour after receiving advice on security from the Federation of International Cricketers' Associations. The WICB has also cancelled an expected security recce, which was planned for later this month. The two boards, however, continue to discuss the possibility of two T20 internationals in Florida on March 19 and 20.
