The dates for England's cricket tour of the West
Indies have been announced and Barbados will be
hosting a number of matches during England's trip to
the Caribbean, most notably the pivotal 3rd Test Match of
the 4-Test Series that will take place at the
Kensington Oval in Bridgetown from the 26th February
2009 - 2nd March 2009.
Forget the hotel and stay in style with one of our
luxury villa rentals and enjoy the flexibility,
privacy and home comforts that come with private
villa living - the villa option usually works out
much more cost-effective than the same standard
hotel.
With thousands of English fans expected the
atmosphere at the Test should be fantastic and
England will also be playing warm-up matches in
Barbados between the 25th and 31st January 2009 and
2 One Day Internationals on the 27th and 29th March
2009. The full tour itinerary is as follows:
