West Indies’ home season includes only three Tests
West Indies will begin their home season with a five-match ODI series and a Twenty20 international against Zimbabwe before hosting South Africa for three Tests, five one-dayers and a Twenty20. The ICC World Twenty20, which will be played in Barbados, St Lucia, Guyana and St Kitts between April 30 and May 16, is sandwiched between the two tours. The season is packed with limited-overs games but includes only three Tests.
Zimbabwe arrive on February 23 and open their tour with the Twenty20 in Trinidad before the five ODIs, in Guyana and St Vincent. The South Africans will begin their tour with the limited-overs matches in Trinidad, Dominica and Jamaica before the Tests, in Jamaica, St Kitts and Barbados respectively.
Zimbabwe last toured West Indies in 2006 for a series of seven ODIs, which they lost 5-0. South Africa last visited in 2004-05, winning the Tests 2-0 and sweeping the one-dayers 5-0.
