Wed, Feb 5, '25
Cricket West Indies (CWI) unveils an action-packed schedule for the senior Men’s and Women’s teams from May to December 2025, featuring a mix of home and away fixtures. Fans can now start planning for an exciting year of cricket, with the men beginning their campaign with limited-overs tours in the United Kingdom.
The Men’s team will continue its preparations for the 2027 ICC Cricket World Cup, starting with a three-match One-Day International (ODI) series against Ireland from May 21-25 in Malahide, Dublin. Four days later, they will face England in a bid for back-to-back ODI series wins, with three ODIs scheduled from May 29 to June 3. This will be followed by three T20 Internationals (T20Is) against England from June 6-10, before concluding the UK tour with three T20Is against Ireland in Belfast from June 12-15.
The Men in Maroon will then shift focus to Test cricket, with the start of the ICC World Test Championship cycle under new head coach Daren Sammy. They will battle for the prestigious Frank Worrell Trophy against Australia in a three-match Test series, beginning in Barbados (June 25-29), before moving to Grenada (July 3-7) and concluding in Jamaica (July 12-16).
A five-match T20I series against Australia follows, with the first two games at Sabina Park (July 20, 22) and the remaining three at Warner Park, St. Kitts (July 25, 26, 28).
To close out the home summer, the West Indies will play against Pakistan in three T20Is in Lauderhill, Florida followed by three ODIs at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad from July 31 to August 12.
The Men’s team will then embark on an overseas tour to India, Bangladesh, and New Zealand, spanning from September 21 to December 23. India will feature two test matches, Bangladesh three ODIS and three T20Is while a full tour will be hosted by New Zealand consisting of five T20Is, three ODIs and three test matches.
The Women’s team begins their 2025 campaign with the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers in Pakistan from April 4-19, where six teams will compete for two spots in the marquee event in India, scheduled for August-September.
Following the qualifiers, the Women will tour England for a full white-ball series, featuring three T20Is and three ODIs from May 21 to June 8.
Later in the year, they will host South Africa for a historic white-ball series at the 3Ws Oval in Barbados, marking the first time the venue will stage such an international series.
