Test cricket coming to Dominica

The Windsor Park Stadium in Dominica will see cricket action when the West Indies take on Pakistan in one of three Test matches.

The West Indies and Pakistan Cricket Boards have agreed to play three Tests, three One-Day-Internationals and two Twenty20 matches in the Caribbean from Monday, March 27 to Monday, May 15.

The series is scheduled to start in the twin-island of Trinidad and Tobago and end in Dominica.

The Test in Dominica will begin on Wednesday, May 10.

The Twenty20 matches are scheduled for Trinidad; the three ODIs in Guyana, then the teams will then travel to Jamaica, Barbados and Dominica for each of the Test matches.

Manager of Operations, WICB, Roland Holder thinks this series will offer the home team an additional opportunity in the busy cricket year “to improve its ranking. Any series against Pakistan always poses an interesting contest for the West Indies.”

The full schedule is below.

Friday, March 31 – 1st T20 at Queen’s Park Oval
Sunday, April 2 – 2nd T20 at Queen’s Park Oval
Friday, April 7 – 1st ODI  at Guyana National Stadium

Saturday, April 15 – 3-Day Match Trelawny Stadium
Friday, April 22 – 1st Test Sabina Park

    Mr PM

    Spruce up Roseau before the visitors arrive.

    Too many tourists are complaining about the infrastructure and general hygiene of the capital.

    You have the resources so please use some f it for a good cause.

    Many thanks

      Janice, you’re 100% correct. These sidewalks are the worst that I have ever seen in a city. The holes in the sidewalks, the broken sidewalks the drains crossing the sidewalks, the steps blocking the sidewalk egress, the deep gutters, etc are many of the reasons why Roseau is not appealing to visitors. The government (which ever government) has to make that a top priority in order to enhance the tourist industry.

    Will they be 1st. teams playing or second? I don’t want to spend my time watching 2nds. playing cricket at the stadium and then govt. have to let people in free to make the place look full on t.v. Seriously man, tell us exactly what teams, with names that will take to the field before I spend my money.

      How do you “make” a place look full? It is either full or empty and i thought WIBC was in control if you have nothing to say just shut up.
