"We urge fans to rally behind our Men in Maroon as we strive for a historic third T20 World Cup title and seek to secure all important points in the ICC WTC," Johnny Grave said.
Cricket West Indies (CWI) recently came forward to announce that the West Indies will soon be hosting the likes of South Africa, England, and Bangladesh in 2024. The Proteas will be visiting for three T20Is in May prior to the T20 World Cup 2024.
They will be making their return to the West Indies in August for two Tests in Trinidad and Guyana, and 3 T20Is, with every T20I being played in Trinidad. Next up, England will be visiting the West Indies at the end of October 2024 for three ODIs and five T20Is, which will be played across Antigua, Barbados, and St Lucia.
The West Indies will then end their home season by taking on Bangladesh across two Tests in Antigua and Jamaica, which will be followed by 3 ODIs in St. Kitts and 3 T20Is in St. Vincent. Both sides will lock horns in November-December 2024.
We urge fans to rally behind our Men in Maroon: Johnny Grave
With the announcement of the schedule, CWI’s Chief Executive, Johnny Grave, came forward to talk about how excited the board is to welcome the likes of South Africa, England, and Bangladesh to their country for the multi-format series. He also reflected on the development of the National Stadium in Grenada and Windsor Park in Dominica, and how the board is looking to make a return to the venue in 2025.
"We are delighted to announce our West Indies Men's Home Series for the remainder of the year that will welcome South Africa, England and Bangladesh to eight of our host countries in the West Indies, including Saint Vincent for the first time since 2012," Johnny Grave was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz.
"With significant improvements being made to the National Stadium in Grenada and Windsor Park in Dominica we were unable to host International cricket there this year, but we are already looking forward to returning to both venues in 2025, we urge fans to rally behind our Men in Maroon as we strive for a historic third T20 World Cup title and seek to secure all important points in the ICC WTC," he added.
