The West In­dies Crick­et Board has an­nounced changes to the dates for the two-Test se­ries be­tween West In­dies and Aus­tralia, with the match­es be­ing ad­vanced by two days.

The first Test will now start on June 3 in Do­mini­ca, while the sec­ond Test will be played from June 11 at Sabi­na Park in Ja­maica. The three-day tour game, orig­i­nal­ly sched­uled to be­gin on May 30 at North Sound, will now be played from May 27-29.

"We are ful­ly aware that there are a num­ber of fans plan­ning to trav­el around and to the Caribbean for the Aus­tralia tour, and we want to ex­plain to them that the change was ab­solute­ly nec­es­sary, due to a num­ber of lo­gis­ti­cal chal­lenges be­yond our con­trol," WICB Man­ag­er, Crick­et Op­er­a­tions Roland Hold­er said.
