The India men's cricket team toured the West Indies and the United States in July and August 2023 to play two Test, three One Day International (ODI) and five Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1] The Test series formed part of the 2023–2025 ICC World Test Championship.[2][3] The International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed this FTP tour in their press release in August 2022.[4]
Originally, three T20I matches were scheduled to take place in the West Indies.[5] However in March 2023, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) agreed to the proposal of Cricket West Indies (CWI) to include two more T20I matches in the tour.[6][7] In April 2023, CWI announced that the two extra T20I matches would take place in Florida, United States.[8] On 12 June 2023, CWI announced the schedule of the tour.[9][10]
