West Indies' complete international cricket schedule for 2020
Reigning T20 world champions West Indies will defend their title in Australia this year. The Men in Maroon will once again go out to try and prove themselves as the best T20 unit on the planet.
While West Indies did not live up to the expectations at the 2019 World Cup, Kieron Pollard's men are proven T20 specialists.
Apart from the T20 World Cup, West Indies will also play against Ireland, England, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, South Africa, Netherlands and Australia in this year. The Caribbean team will also look to leave its mark on the ICC World Test Championship after a disappointing start in 2019.
