India are set to host the West Indies for a two-match Test series foll🍸owed by five ODIs and three T20Is 🎃from October 4.
T🧸he last time West Indies toured India for a Test series, they suffered two straight innings defeat ܫto lose 0-2. They then also went on to lose a three-match ODI series 2-1 that followed the Tests.
