West Indian cricket team in England in 1928 matches, which had hitherto been restricted to sides from England, Australia and South Africa. The West Indian cricket tour of England in 1928 was the first of these new Test-playing ventures, and it was backed heavily by the cricket establishment because of the success of the 1923 West Indian cricket team in England, when the side won 12 matches.

The side was captained by Karl Nunes, who had been vice-captain of the 1923 touring side.
