Both sides will first play three T20Is, followed by as many ODIs between 24 May and 5 June, in Karachi.

The three ODIs will form a part of the ICC Women's Championship in which Pakistan finished fifth in the last cycle, ahead of New Zealand, West Indies and Sri Lanka.

All the matches will be played at Karachi’s Southend Club – Pakistan's first international series at the venue since they hosted West Indies for three T20Is in December 2018.
