West Indies cricketers are scheduled to depart from England today for Sri Lanka where they will fine-tune preparations for their World Cup campaign, in a three match One-Day Internationals series against the hosts.
The side, which flew out of the Caribbean on Tuesday evening, will use the series to implement several of their strategies for the Cricket World Cup, which runs from February 19 to April 2 in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and India.
The series was rescheduled from last December after persistent rains, which had wrecked the preceding Test series, also seemed set to affect the five One Day Internationals.
The Caribbean side is set to arrive in Sri Lanka tomorrow morning and will play the first game against Sri Lanka on Monday.
