The West Indies cricket team toured Pakistan in June 2022 to play three One Day International (ODI) matches.[1][2] Originally, the matches were scheduled to be played in December 2021,[3] but were postponed after multiple cases of COVID-19 were confirmed in the West Indies team and support staff.[4][5] The ODI series formed part of the inaugural 2020–23 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[6][7][8]

On 28 March 2022, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed the fixtures for the tour,[9] with Rawalpindi initially hosting all three matches.[10] The following month, the PCB also announced that the series would be played without any COVID-19 protocols, meaning that the series was played with no bio-secure bubble.[11] However, in May 2022, the PCB moved all the matches to Multan,[12] due to the ongoing political crisis in the country.[13] The start times of the matches were also moved to 4pm local time to mitigate the impact of the extreme heat.[14] The last time that the ground hosted an ODI match was in April 2008, during Bangladesh's tour of the country.[15]

Pakistan won the opening ODI match by five wickets with their captain Babar Azam scoring a century.[16] Pakistan won the second match by 120 runs to win the series with a match to play.[17] It was also the West Indies' tenth-consecutive series loss to Pakistan in ODI cricket.[18] The third and final ODI match was temporarily suspended during Pakistan's innings due to a dust storm.[19] Despite the interruption, Pakistan went on to win the match by 53 runs, winning the series 3–0.[20]
