12 May to7 July 2007 as part of the2007 English cricket season . The tour included four Tests, twoTwenty20 international matches and threeOne Day International s. While England dominated the test series 3:0, including a record victory of the West Indies, the latter took the ODI series 2:1.Comparative performances
Test matches
In the
ICC Test Championship , England are ranked second and West Indies are ranked eighth, though England's most recent series was a whitewash loss inthe Ashes against Australia for the first time since 1921, their first Test series loss since their tour of Pakistan in 2005. West Indies, meanwhile, lost 0–2 to Pakistan in November 2006 as their last Test series, and have not won a Test since April 2005. The last time West Indies won an away Test to a nation currently ranked above them was on their tour of England in 2000 – they've also beaten Zimbabwe and Bangladesh twice during these seven years.One-Day Internationals
The
ICC ODI Championship sees England ranked just ahead of West Indies, as seventh and eighth respectively, though West Indies are more competitive in ODIs. They finished fifth and sixth in the Super Eight stage of the recent World Cup, with England finishing ahead of West Indies by virtue of their one-wicket win. West Indies, however, reached the final of the Champions Trophy in October 2006, and defeated India 4–1 in a home series in May. England also acquired one ODI series win in the past year, defeating Australia in the final of the 2007Commonwealth Bank Series , their first series win abroad since 1998. They were, however, defeated 0–5 at home by Sri Lanka in June, as well as drawing 2–2 with Pakistan.quads
This was Peter Moores' first series as England Coach, and
Andy Flower , former Zimbabwe wicket-keeper batsman, was his newly appointed assistant.Michael Vaughan had been set to return to Test cricket for his first match in 17 months after captaining England during the World Cup, but an injury to his finger ruled him out of the first Test, andAndrew Strauss was appointed as captain in his place. [ [http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/engvwi/content/story/294169.html Vaughan likely for second Test] , Cricinfo, published15 May 2007 ] James Anderson was a late addition to the squad as cover forAndrew Flintoff , though neither eventually played the first Test. Flintoff was also ruled out of playing in the second Test, despite having being named in the squads for both of the first two Tests.

However, in a 9-ball over, he did getDaren Ganga out lbw for 6. During the lunch break, West Indies lodged a complaint against Harmison who had unwittingly contrevened Law 17 by practicing on the match strip before the innings. The complaint was deniedHarmison conceded 15 more runs, as well as six byes and two leg-byes, in three overs after lunch, but
Liam Plunkett struck with his third ball and West Indies were two down for 49.Devon Smith ,Runako Morton ,Shiv Chanderpaul andDwayne Bravo all provided passed 20 runs, with Smith and Chanderpaul having the staying power to bat more than an hour, and at 216 for four West Indies were 56 ahead of the English score at the fall of the fifth wicket. However, in the space of 43 balls West Indies lost six wickets, withRyan Sidebottom andMonty Panesar splitting them evenly and conceding 13 runs in the process. Once again, extras was a near-top-scorer, only eight runs short of Chanderpaul's 50.Andrew Strauss failed to proved himself again with a second ball lbw, falling for successive double-digit scores for the first time in 35 Test matches, leaving No. 3 Vaughan to effectively open once more. With the total on 28, and both batsmen with two fours to their name,Denesh Ramdin threw up the ball after an appeal off Cook, who scurried for a single in the confusion. Cook was awarded a run, though as the ball hadn't hit bat and he wasn't caught behind, it was eventually a bye. Then, Ramdin let slip a sitter through his legs which went on to hit his helmet, boosting the English with a mandatory five penalty runs before the second day's play ended.

After tea, Gayle broke through to have Cook lbw for 106, before Sammy took six wickets in a seven-over spell to end with figures of seven for 66, the second best by a West Indies bowler on debut, and the best by a debutant in 57 years. Among the wickets was Bell's for two, causing his average at six to drop between 75. The fourth innings had only 8 overs in which Gayle scored a quick four, but Harmison continued the Test's string of early dismissals trapping Ganga plumb for a duck. This didn't stop the West Indies attacking to their target of 455 as 3 more fours were hit, despite two massive appeals from Panesar. The Windies batted slowly and carefully over the two days and ended up falling only 61 runs short of winning the match. If they had reached the total it would have been the highest fourth innings total ever to win a test match. Shivnarine Chanderpaul top scored with 116 not out.4th Test 15th June - 19th June

* England's win in the second test by an innings and 283 runs was the West Indies' heaviest defeat in test cricket.
* The fourth day of the second test was played with the temperature around seven degrees Celsius in the morning; the coldest playing conditions for a Test in England.
* Play on the fourth day of the third test saw the highest number of extras in a test match in England, and the second highest ever. By the end of the test, poor fielding by the West Indies and inconsistent bowling by both sides had added 167 to the cumulative run total, which included 51bye s, 45leg bye s, 27no ball s and 29wide s.
