The BCCI and Cricket West Indies (CWI) announced India's tour of the West Indies on Wednesday (June 01), with the visitors playing three ODIs and five T20Is between July 22 and August 7.
India's white-ball phase of the UK tour will end on July 17, and those chosen will fly directly to the Caribbean from England. The ODI series and three T20Is will be held in Trinidad and Tobago and St Kitts and Nevis, with the final two T20Is taking place at Fort Lauderhill, Florida.
The three One-Day Internationals will be held on July 22, 24, and 27 at Port of Spain's (Trinidad & Tobago) iconic Queen's Park Oval, followed by five Twenty-20 Internationals, two of which will be held at Florida's Fort Lauderhill.
The first T20I will be played on July 29 at Brian Lara Stadium in Port of Spain, followed by two games on August 1 and 2 at Warner Park in St Kitts.
The final two games will be played at Broward County Stadium in Florida on August 6 and 7, in order to appease the Indian diaspora in the United States.
The entire series will be streamed live exclusively on FanCode.
West Indies captain Nicholas Pooran said about the upcoming series, “We have a young team that is eager to restore the brand of cricket the West Indies team is known for playing.
“As I take charge of this team, our ambition is to always be competitive, as we look to use this series to fine-tune our preparations for the upcoming T20 and 50 Over World Cups," he added further.
Talking about this, Johnny Grave, CEO of CWI said: “Our four-year deal with FanCode has brought Indian cricket fans closer to CWI’s live properties across multiple formats that has featured the top cricketing nations like South Africa, Pakistan, Australia, and England.
“FanCode has become the go-to platform for Indian fans to consume cricket in a digital-first manner which has redefined the sports viewing experience."
