The tour comprises of three T20Is and ODIs each and will see the return of many regulars who missed the five T20Is versus Zimbabwe, in the African nation, shortly after the WC triumph.

The ODIs will see the return of Rohit and Virat Kohli. The two have a solid record versus the Islanders and, hence, will like to carry on in a similar fashion with one eye already on the next ICC event, i.e. the 2025 Champions Trophy. Hitman will lead the ODI side.
