ST JOHN’S, Antigua - Cricket West Indies and the Pakistan Cricket Board are advancing discussions that will see the Windies team playing three Twenty20 matches with the Pakistan cricket team in Lahore in late November 2017.
The tour would be subject to the safe conclusion of the ICC World XI team's three match series in Lahore in September and affirmation of manageable security by the ICC sponsored international security company overseeing the security arrangements of the World XI in September.
This follows discussions between CWI President, Dave Cameron and Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Najam Sethi.
Both sides expressed a desire to facilitate the return of international cricket to Pakistan

BIRMINGHAM, England, CMC – West Indies suffered a humiliating innings and 209-run defeat in the historic day/night opening Test after losing 19 wickets in a devastating capitulation on Saturday’s third day at Edgbaston.
Resuming the day on 44 for one in their first innings facing the massive task of overtaking England’s imposing 514 for eight declared, West Indies were bundled out for 168 in their first innings despite an aggressive, better than-run-a-ball unbeaten 79 from Jermaine Blackwood.
Forced to follow on by 346 runs, the Caribbean side were then rolled over for a paltry 137 in their second innings with only opener Kraigg Brathwaite showing any resistance with a top score of 40.
On both occasions, the Windies were undermined by England’s seamers, with the innings failing to last 50 overs.
The defeat left West Indies trailing 1-0 in the three-Test series, further extending their dismal record of having not won a Test in England in 17 years.

After yesterday's disappointing show, Windies were again poor with the ball and in the field.
Alastair Cook's fourth double century in Tests put England fully in command of the first Test on a rain-affected day at Edgbaston on Day 2. Play was abandoned early after rain arrived at 7.30pm but not before Cook, who had begun the day on 153, had joined Sir Len Hutton on four Test double hundreds for England, the second most behind Wally Hammond who managed a remarkable seven double centuries during his fine career. When Cook finishes, he will be ranked alongside those greats as one of England's finest ever Test batsmen.
He spent nine hours and 22 minutes compiling his 243 before being eventually dismissed LBW to off-spinner Roston Chase on Friday (August 18). Marais Erasmus gave it not out, but Windies reviewed and Hawk Eye showed it to be crashing into middle stump. When the decision was reversed, Cook swished his bat in disappointment. It was an act which epitomised his hunger for runs. Even 243 was not enough for England's leading Test run-scorer.
