Cricket West Indies (CWI) is excited to announce the upcoming Men’s “A” Team home series, as West Indies “A” takes on South Africa “A” from 21 May to 11 June 2025. The tour will feature three 50-over matches and two four-day first-class matches, all hosted at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground in Saint Lucia.
As part of CWI’s ongoing commitment to bringing international cricket to all corners of the Caribbean, all matches in this series will be free to the public. Saint Lucians are strongly encouraged to come out in their numbers to support the West Indies team, take in the live action, and enjoy a unique opportunity to see the region’s brightest talent compete at a high level.
This series reflects CWI’s broader strategy to ensure international cricket is always shared equitably across the territories, strengthening regional ties and fan engagement at every level. The mix of white-ball and red-ball formats also means there’s something for everyone—whether you’re a lifelong cricket fan or just discovering the game.
CWI CEO Chris Dehring reinforced the significance of the series and its role in energizing the region:
The West Indies “A” team is set to welcome their South African counterparts in what is expected to be a hotly contested series—a continuation of the rivalry that began with the West Indies “A” tour of South Africa in 2023. With Saint Lucia now playing host, home support will be a crucial advantage.
Director of Cricket, Miles Bascombe, added:
This series also serves as the perfect curtain-raiser for the highly anticipated “Full Ah Energy” West Indies Home Series, which bowls off in Barbados on June 25, 2025. Fans across the region can look forward to a full summer of top-tier international cricket, starting with this exciting “A” team clash.
The West Indies “A” squad will be announced shortly, while South Africa “A” is scheduled to arrive in Saint Lucia on May 16. With free admission, local pride on the line, and future stars in action, this is cricket that no fan will want to miss.
