England's T20 tour of the Caribbean is set to be brought forward after the announcement of a limited-overs series between West Indies and India in February.

India will host West Indies for six white-ball matches between Sunday, February 6 and Sunday, February 20 next year.

The first match - a one-day international in Ahmedabad - has been scheduled to take place just 24 hours after the original date for England's fifth and final T20 in the Caribbean. 

Cricket West Indies and the ECB are understood to have come to an agreement on a revised fixture list, which would see the series being brought forward by around one week.

The first match of the campaign was originally earmarked for January 28.

No venues have yet been announced for the series.
