Australia and South Africa will tour West Indies for a 10-match ODI tri-series slated to be held in June next year.

Confirming the tour, WICB manager cricket operations Roland Holder said that it would provide a golden opportunity for their team to test themselves against two of the best sides in the world in the ODI format, ESPNcricinfo reported.

Earlier in June, Australia had retained the Frank Worrell Trophy after defeating West Indies 2-0 in Tests.

Meanwhile, South Africa thrashed West Indies on their last Caribbean tour in 2010, sweeping two T20Is and five ODIs before claiming the three-Test series with a 2-0 scoreline.
