Johnny Grave is confident of going ahead with the England tour in July this year.All international cricket has been suspended since March due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, England is looking to host West Indies in July for three Test matches. If the Test series indeed goes ahead, then it would mark a return for international cricket. "From where we sit at the moment, based on the information we have, based on the fact that every day there are less and less cases in the UK everyone is getting increasingly confident that the tour will happen at some point," ESPNCricinfo quoted Grave as saying.
"Our board meeting is on May 28. If the tour has to take place, by the start of June we would need to have the CWI board approval and support by then in order to get the charter flight logistics in place and select the players," he added. Grave has also suggested that the Test series could take place in Southampton and Old Trafford in a bio-secure environment.
