Copied over from last year's thread

Well just about finalised the trip to Caribbean. Fly off to Barbados on 17 February. Watching all one dayers and T20 matches in Barbados, Grenada, St Lucia and St Kitts. Decided to not go for Test matches as we don’t expect them to be competitive or much atmosphere due to current state of West Indies cricket.

I'm ok with fewer warm up games, I don't think they've provided much value in the last few years. I'd rather they setup games behind closed doors against the lions if they need practice in the middle.
