new to cricket - West Indies!

hey.... I really love the West Indies but I'm just now getting into them.

Want to know what their general schedule looks like.... how many games do they play in a given season?

+ should they get to the World Series finals (across format) is there a number of games they would play then in addition?

You can check out their schedule on cricinfo. There’s a world cup going on right now that they didn’t qualify for but they’ll be playing the T20 world cup next year.

So great to have another West Indies fan around. Welcome! All I can say is I hope you have a dark sense of humour and a lot of resolve because being a West Indies supporter has not been easy for over 20 years.

As Daemon said, our next big international tournament is the T20 World Cup, which we are hosting in June 2024. Our next series is a ODI and t20 series against England at home in early December. We're then touring Australia for tests, ODI's and T20's in mid January 2024.

Global cricket administration sucks and is all about money, so we don't play anywhere near as much as England, Australia and India. At the moment we will play around 6 to 8 test matches a year.

Domestically, we currently have our 50-over tournament, which features a number of televised games. The standard hasn't been too bad so far. Later this year we will also have our 4 day domestic tournament. I hope that helps.
