Australia vs West Indies Test Series 2024: Full schedule, squads, match timings, and live streaming details

Australia will host West Indies for a two-match Test series, starting on January 17, Wednesday. The first Test will be played at the Adelaide Oval and the Gabba in Brisbane will host the second Test.

Matt Renshaw returns to the Australian Test squad to replace the retired David Warner. He was picked ahead of Marcus Harris and Cameron Bancroft for the opening slot.

Interestingly, Steve Smith is set to take up a new role, joining Usman Khawaja as the second opener. Cameron Green is also expected to make it to the playing XI with Renshaw on the bench.

Green will bat at No. 4 after an impressive domestic season at the position. Mitchell Marsh replaced him during the 2023 Ashes but Green will now be batting alongside the former in the West Indies Test series.

On the other hand, West Indies have also named a new-look 15-man squad for the Test series. Notably, the Caribbean side are touring Australia with seven uncapped players in their squad. Kraigg Brathwaite will lead the inexperienced Test unit in both games.

Batter Zachary McCaskie, keeper Tevin Imlach, all-rounders Justin Greaves, Kavem Hodge and Kevin Sinclair, and pacers Akeem Jordan and Shamar Joseph are the seven new faces in the West Indies Test squad.

Jason Holder and Kyle Mayers will miss the two-match Test series due to T20 engagements. At the same time, Jayden Seales, who is suffering from a shoulder injury, is also a notable absentee.
