Pakistan tour of West Indies 2017 itinerary announced [update#41]

The ODI series is at Guyana, where in the last ODI there, SA scored 189 (all out) and Aus. scored 142 (all out). Again, like, much of WI, it is slow, which is good for the spinners, but there is also plenty of swing/seam available.
 
Don't see the point of playing 4 T20Is only a few months before the Champions Trophy.

Should have been 2 T20Is and 5 ODIs, but in an ideal world, no T20Is and 7 ODIs. Disappointing to see WICB's inability to attract crowd for anything but T20Is.

this they could have just added 1T20 and 1ODI

A match in Guyana is usually a good opportunity to have a nice nap. Slow, low pitches that excessively favour spin leading to very dull contests.

I remember in the 2013 ODIs series Pakistan and West Indies played at excruciatingly slow run rates there. WI were all out for 98 off 41 overs in one match.

The groundstaff are apparently planning to relay the pitch and introduce more pace/bounce but let's see if that actually happens.

Your boy is gonna have a field day at Guyana, perfect pitches for him, won't be surprised if Malik bags a few as well
 
his point literally suggests the opposite ie that it is still an ODI tournament, read it more carefully next time

No need for all that sass dude!

The statement, if you read it more carefully as well, is ambiguous. It could mean what you are saying and I see that now but on the other hand you could interpret it as why play too much T20Is when the whole t20 tournament is so soon ahead. <-- Is how I read it as
 
Pakistan have wasted good chances to win their 1st test series in W.I on last few tours and they can be no excuses if they fail to do so this time round, Our test team need to be prepared and ready for 1st test and need to grind W.I into ground to win the 3 match series.
