Though there has been no official confirmation from Cricket West Indies (CWI), Bennett confirmed with theJamaica Observer that the Windies will host the Sri Lankans in three One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and as many Twenty20 (T20) matches next June. Bennett says the strong demand for cricket among local fans has been a major factor in the CWI’s decision. “We needed to have a good crowd for the Australia series and that certainly strengthened my hand,” he said. We intend to continue to fulfil to our obligations and give the Jamaican public as much international cricket as possible.
