West Indies host Sri Lanka intending to restore pride

West Indies will host Sri Lanka in June and July for a full bilateral series comprising three ODIs, three T20Is and two Test matches.

The tour will begin with the ODI series on 3 June, followed by the T20Is from 11 June, with both white-ball legs scheduled for Sabina Park, Kingston.

Then it’s on to Antigua for the Test series, which commences from 25 June. A four-day warm-up fixture will be played ahead of the red-ball leg.

Sri Lanka currently sit fifth in the ICC World Test Championship standings, having played only two matches, and will look to capitalise on an early opportunity to gain points. Meanwhile, West Indies, who have featured in eight matches without a win, want to kick-start their campaign.

The sides last faced each other in a bilateral series in October 2024 in Sri Lanka, where the hosts dominated across formats. Their most recent white-ball meeting came in 2021 in Galle, with Sri Lanka again winning.
