The Men In Blue continue to have a dream run in the ongoing Caribbean tour as they have added another feather in their cap by winning the One Day International series by an unassailable 2-0 lead against West Indies.

The first Test will be played in Antigua from August 22-26 while the second and final Test will be played at Kingston Jamaica from August 30- September 3.
