England will play their first five-match T20I series against the West Indies in January, before competing in a three-match Test series in March where both countries will play for the right to lift the newly inaugurated Richards-Botham Trophy.

The schedule for England's T20 and Test tour of the West Indies in January and March 2022 has been announced by Cricket West Indies (CWI) and the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

All five matches in Barbados will be played across a nine-day period from January 22 to January 30, including two consecutive weekends of back-to-back T20 cricket.

The Test series will start at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground (SVRCG) in Antigua on March 8, 2022 before moving to the Kensington Oval in Barbados for the second Test starting on March 16.

The third Test match will commence on March 24 in Grenada at the National Cricket Stadium.
