England Women will be visiting the Caribbean for three One Day Internationals and five T20Is between December 4 to December 23. The ODI series is a part of the ICC Women’s Championship, and thus is of prime significance. Meanwhile, the shortest format will be a good match practice for both sides heading into the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 which is set to be hosted by South Africa.
The eight white-ball matches will be played across Antigua and Barbados. England, who were blanked 0-3 at home against India a couple of months ago, would be hoping to rediscover their rhythm in the 50-over format. Meanwhile, they also have some serious concerns in the T20Is after failing to finish on the podium at the Commonwealth Games 2022 at home.
England will be boosted by the return of their seasoned players Nat Sciver, Katherine Brunt, and skipper Heather Knight and they would be expected to showcase total dominance over the Caribbean side. This is also a massive opportunity for the West Indies to dominate the former world champions by banking on their home advantage. They had beaten England in a Women’s World Cup fixture earlier this year and thus, the visitors shall not underestimate the Caribbean unit at their own peril.
Even in the shortest format, the Windies would look to give the visitors a run for their money as they have some world-class T20 players in their arsenal.
