The upcoming series will be played from September 27 to October 17 and will be an important preparation period for West Indies ahead of the 2027 World Cup Qualifiers. Shai Hope will captain both sides as the visitors begin with three ODIs in Thiruvananthapuram before moving into the five-match T20I series.
Shimron Hetmyer has been given an extended recovery period after the CPL and will miss the three-match ODI series from September 27 to October 3. He will return for the five-match T20I series, while former captain Jason Holder has been rested for the entire tour.
John Campbell Makes ODI Comeback for West Indies
John Campbell has also returned to the ODI side after missing the final two matches of the recent series against New Zealand because of a hamstring injury.
The second ODI in Guwahati on September 30 will also mark the end of the automatic qualification cycle for the 2027 ODI World Cup in Africa. West Indies cannot qualify directly for the tournament and will have to go through the ICC World Cup Qualifiers next year.
