Cricket West Indies is pleased to announce the upcoming Academy home series between the West Indies and Sri Lanka from 7 June to 26 June 2025. The tour will feature two four-day first-class matches and three 50-over matches to be played in Antigua at the Coolidge Cricket Ground and the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, respectively.
This series is part of the long-term strategic plan for CWI to create a pathway for the region’s brightest talent to develop while being exposed to international competition. These matches are at an opportune time for the Academy players who recently took part in the 2025 West Indies Championship.
Director of Cricket Miles Bascombe sees the increased value in having competitive cricket for the Academy team.
“These matches serve as a critical component in the development of our emerging players. There is a strategic plan in terms of bridging the gap between the junior and senior levels and the games against Sri Lanka will be used to continue sharpening and equipping our best prospects for the next level.”
