West Indies is set to host a thrilling lineup of cricket fixtures from May to December 2024, welcoming formidable opponents such as South Africa, England, and Bangladesh.
The action-packed schedule kicks off with a three-match T20I series against South Africa commencing on May 23 at Sabina Park in Jamaica. Notably, these fixtures coincide with the IPL playoffs, potentially affecting the availability of West Indies players like Rovman Powell and Shimron Hetmyer, who are key figures in the Rajasthan Royals squad.
Following the T20Is, West Indies will journey to England for a Test series in July before hosting South Africa again in August for two Tests, followed by a three-match T20I series in Trinidad. This series will serve as a warm-up for the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
In October, West Indies will venture to Sri Lanka for a white-ball tour before returning home to face England in a series comprising three ODIs and five T20Is across Antigua, Barbados, and St Lucia.
