Cricket West Indies (CWI) has announced a jam-packed schedule for their home summer for the Windies men as they will be having three of the top sides in the world on their shores. The West Indies will be playing a total of 4 Tests, 3 ODIs and a whopping 15 T20Is throughout their 2 and a half-month long home season.

The 22 games will be played across 5 Caribbean island nations in St. Lucia, Grenada, Barbados, Guyana and Jamaica, starting with the two Tests at the Daren Sammy Nation Cricket Stadium in St. Lucia against South Africa, starting June 10.

In a CWI release, the Cricket West Indies CEO Johnny Grave said, "Following the successful hosting of the all-format series against Sri Lanka earlier this year, we are delighted to announce that we are set to welcome South Africa, Australia and Pakistan to the West Indies. To host three international teams back-to-back in five territories is unprecedented, and putting these fixtures together was an enormous Covid-related logistical challenge.

"We must thank the visiting teams for agreeing to travel at this challenging period for world cricket and we are especially grateful to our regional Governments who are playing such a vital role in partnering with CWI to ensure that International cricket can be hosted safely, while providing entertainment for our loyal fans and income for our cricketers and cricket communities," he added.

The team will be playing two Tests and five T20Is against South Africa from June 10 to July 3, five T20Is and three ODIs against Australia from July 9 to July 24 and 2 Tests and five T20Is against Pakistan from July 27 to August 24.
