India will be back in action against West Indies next month

Team India will now be travelling to West Indies in July-August for playing a full-fledged tour consisting of two Tests, three ODIs and five T20Is. The defeat in the World Test Championship final against Australia might see some fresh faces being introduced in the longest format.

The three ODIs and five T20Is will also be crucial for India's preparation for the ODI World Cup 2023 and the T20 World Cup 2024. It will be interesting to see which new faces get a call-up to the T20I side, especially with the T20 World Cup set to be held in West Indies and USA next year.
