prehistory

Pakistan previously played a tour in Bangladesh and the West Indies a three-nation tournament . The last meeting of the two teams on a tour took place in the 2000 season in the West Indies . After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in the USA and the subsequent intervention by the USA in Afghanistan , the planned tour in Pakistan was discussed for a long time. It wasn't until the beginning of the year, a month before the tour started, that the West Indies decided not to travel to Pakistan. Shortly thereafter, Sharjah was set as an alternate location and the first test series was ever held at a neutral location.
