The Australian cricket team toured the West Indies in June and July 2025 to play the West Indies cricket team.[1][2] The tour consisted of three Test and five Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[3] Australia and the West Indies also played three One Day International (ODI) matches in early February, but those were in Australia. But it still ended 3-0. The Test series formed part of the 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship.[4] In February 2025, the Cricket West Indies (CWI) confirmed the fixtures for the tour, as a part of the 2025 home international season.[5][6] Australia also never lost a game in this tour.
In March 2025, Cricket West Indies decided that the third Test of the series would be played as day-night Test at Sabina Park.[7]
Australia registered their first-ever T20I series win in the West Indies.[8]
