The West Indies cricket team toured Australia, in the Frank Worrell Trophy for a 3-match Test series, a 5-match ODI series, and 2 Twenty20 Internationals from 18 November 2009 to 23 February 2010. Australia remained unbeaten throughout the summer, winning the test series 2–0, ODI series 4–0 and the Twenty20 series 2–0 besides completing a clean sweep of Pakistan earlier in January. Hence the Australians fulfilled their dreams of having an unbeaten summer. Since the introduction of ODIs in the 1970s, they had only one other summer – 2000–01 – when they didn't lose a match.
