The England cricket team toured West Indies from 1 March to 5 May 2004 as part of the 2003–04 West Indian cricket season. The tour included four Tests and seven One Day Internationals.

Ramnaresh Sarwan recorded a pair in this test.

The second test win meant that England retained the Wisden Trophy.

Matthew Hoggard claimed a hat-trick in the West Indies 2nd innings. Hoggard got Ramnaresh Sarwan (caught), Shivnarine Chanderpaul (lbw) and Ryan Hinds (caught) in successive deliveries. This was the 33rd hat-trick in test cricket and the 10th hat-trick for an English man.

Brian Lara's 400 not out is the highest score in Test cricket. His 400 consisted of 582 balls and is the fifth longest innings in Test cricket lasting 778 minutes (12 hours 58 minutes). He hit 43 fours and 4 sixes.
