India’s first major cricketing assignment in the aftermath of a hectic two and a half months will see them tour the West Indies for a full assignment. The Men in Blue will be playing Tests, ODIs and T20Is during their month-long tour of the Caribbean.
The series will kick off with a two-match Test series that will be the first assignment of both the sides in the World Test Championship 2023-25 cycle.
The first Test of the series will take place from 12th-16th July and will be hosted in Windsor Park, Dominica.
The second Test will take place from 20th-24th July and will be held in the Queens Park Oval Stadium in Trinidad.
From there on out, the focus will shift towards a three-match ODI series – an important outing for both sides as it will be among their bilateral series’ set to be played before the ICC World Cup.

The first ODI will be held on 27th July at the Kensington Oval in Barbados, with the second match taking place two days later in the very same venue.
The action will then shift to the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad, where the third and final ODI of the series will be played.
The same venue will then play host to the first game of the five-match T20I series that will follow the ODI series, with the match taking place on 3rd August.
The 2nd and 3rd T20Is will be held at the National Stadium in Guyana while the action then moves to the United States of America (USA) for the last two T20Is.
These 2 games will be held at the Broward County Stadium in Lauderhill, Florida. It’s worth noting that India have previously played matches against West Indies in America before.
