Trinidad to host Pakistan as CWI announces 'exciting' 2025 schedule

CRICKET West Indies (CWI) has unveiled an action-packed schedule for the senior men’s and women’s teams from April to December 2025, featuring a mix of home and away fixtures.

"Fans can now start planning for an exciting year of cricket, with the men beginning their campaign with limited-overs tours in the United Kingdom (against Ireland and England in May/June)," a CWI media release on February 5 said.

The men's team will return home to face Australia in both the Test and T20 format from the end of June to the end of July. As soon as Australia leave the Caribbean, Pakistan will arrive for T20 and ODI matches.

The Brian Lara Cricket Academy will host the three-match ODI series against Pakistan from August 8-12.

The women will have a busy year, starting with the International Cricket Council (ICC) 50-over World Cup qualifiers in April. After that, the women will tour England for T20 and ODI matches in May and June. Also, in June, the women will host South Africa in ODIs and T20s.

In August and September, the ICC Women's 50-over World Cup will be held with West Indies hoping to be one of the competing teams.
