ST. JOHN’S, Antigua- Antigua and Barbados will play hosts to the West Indies Women’s International Home Series against Australia from September 5-18.

Fans will have the chance to rally behind their new-found women’s heroes following their great performances in the Caribbean at last year’s ICC Women’s World T20. This will be the West Indies women’s first home series since their semi-final defeat to Australia in the Women’s World T20. No doubt the West Indies women will be bringing the explosive batting and fielding that was on display during that World Cup. Fans will also have the opportunity to meet the players after matches for photo and autograph opportunities.

The Series will open with three Colonial Medical Insurance One Day Internationals (ODIs)  in Antigua, part of the ICC Women’s Championship. The West Indies Women will be looking to get the better of the Aussies who eliminated them in the semi-finals of the ICC World T20 last November. The first ODI will be played at the Coolidge Cricket Ground on Thursday 5 September, while the second and third matches in the Colonial Medical Insurance Series will be played at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Sunday 8 and Wednesday 11 September respectively.
