West Indies will visit New Zealand for two Tests and five One-Day Internationals at year-end.
The tour, which bowls off on December 11 and also includes two 20/20 Internationals, will see the regional side playing two Tests prior to Christmas Day before starting their One Day campaign.
West Indies will meet the Black Caps in the first Test at Carisbrook in Dunedin from December 11 to 15 before travelling to Napier for the second Test from December 19 to 23 at McLean Park.
Following the 20/20 Internationals at Eden Park and Seddon Park on December 26 and December 28 respectively, the One Day International series will get going at Queenstown Events Centre in Queenstown.
The New Zealand tour will be a precursor to the West Indies’ Home Series against England, which bowls off in January 2009.
