Cricket West Indies (CWI) says it will face a logistical nightmare in rescheduling its international home series if the coronavirus pandemic results in a disruption to these fixtures.

Of main concern for the governing body is the three-match one-day international series against New Zealand which is part of the qualification process for the 2023 World Cup, and the two-Test rubber against South Africa that forms part of the World Test Championship.
