    • England will play their first Test match in St Lucia as part of a two-month tour of the Caribbean early next year.


    The other two venues for the three-match Test series, which is the first part of the trip, are Barbados and Antigua.


    England’s previous Test series in the Caribbean finished 1-1 after West Indies levelled the series in Barbados following England’s win in Grenada.


    A five-match one-day series will follow with matches in Barbados, Grenada and St Lucia before the tour wraps up with three T20s which also includes a match at the Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium.


    England arrive in Barbados on January 11 and have one four-day tour match pencilled in ahead of the opening Test on January 23.


    A tour by England remains very important for the West Indies board because of the number of travelling supporters they are likely to bring. This is the first time all three formats have been played on the same tour since 2009.

Darren Lehmann Reveals Emotional Struggles Post Ball-Tampering Scandal

READ MORE He tearfully quit in the aftermath despite being cleared of any direct role and contracted until the 2019 Ashes series in England, with Justin Langer taking over. His decision followed then captain Steve Smith, his deputy David Warner and opening batsman Cameron Bancroft receiving lengthy bans for the plot to alter the ball using sandpaper. “I saw people, and am still seeing people about it. That’s a work in progress,” Lehmann told the Sydney Daily Telegraph as he prepares to re-launch his career as a commentator. “I don’t think people know how much it affects people behind the scenes, but that’s one of those things that you go through. The help of family and close friends got me through.” Lehmann, who will be behind the microphone for Australia’s first one-day international against South Africa in Perth on Sunday, said the governing body offered psychological support “but you could always have more, can’t you?...
