India are set to host the West Indies for a two-match Te𒁏st series followed by five ODIs and three T💯20Is from October 4.
The last time Weꦰst Indies toured India for a Test series, they suffered two straight innings defeat to lose 0-2. They then also went on to lose a three-match ODI series 2-1 that followed the Tests.
