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).

Good to see Jamaica getting a Test..Will be 70 years since the Initial Tour of the Region by AUSTRALIA in 1955,the year that commemorated Jamaica
300th Anniversary as a British Territory( Still is smile ) and as a youth spent many school days
enjoying cricket as played by the Aussies who won the 5 Test series 3-0 inclusive of the 1st and 5th Tests played at Sabina Park and the one
at Bourda ,a venue that has joined the dinosaurs.

Australia became my favorite Test playing Country then and remains so with India next as the high standard and enjoyable brand of cricket was never seen in the
region before.
Fond memories of the deeds of Walcott,Collie Smith,Sobers, Weekes,Atkinson,Depeiza along with Miller,Harvey,Morris, Lindwall,Benaud,Archer,McDonald and Langley
a wonderful keeper , have never and will never fade.
Times have certainly changed and the Glamour of Test cricket also but the wish is that the current and future generation will be rewarded generously with good cricket when the time comes.
