As the Windies team is coming to Karachi to play a t20 series.

Why could PCB not arrange an ODI or a test match(or a series)with the West-Indian team?

As Lahore and Karachi have already shown the world that they can successfully arrange a t20 match, so why not take the next step?
 
They probably won't be willing just yet to play an odi series, and may have sent lesser players if they did. I think next year when half of PSL is in Pakistan, at that point you could arrange some odis and t20s.
 
Test isn't as financially viable but yeah some ODI's would have been nice too.
 
We are having problems getting a T20I side to Pakistan....
 
I actually would love to see an ODI series. These T20 matches are a decent stepping stone but they are little more than exhibition matches intended to showcase how safe Pakistan is.
 
Not Windies... need to invite the Saffers for a 5 ODI and 3 T20 series.

If Faf can come, they all can.
 
Pakistan need to play More test match series. At least 10 - 12 Test matches a year.
 
Tests are off the table.

1) No money to be made
2) Requires 5 days of full security
3) Harder to convince players to stay for long durations

ODIs are possible but I think the PCB wants to milk these tours as much as possible while maintaining security. It's easier to secure a ground for 3-5 hours at a time.
