West Indies squad for India series announced

West Indies named the same 13-man squad for the first two ODIs of the five-match series against India, which played in the last series against Afghanistan. The same squad means the big names like Chris Gayle, Dwayne Bravo, and Kieron Pollard will not feature in the first two games. The team will be led by all-rounder Jason Holder. Their pace bowling spearhead Shannon Gabriel will miss out on the first two matches of the series though, as he is still recovering from an injury.

India had already announced their squad with Rishabh Pant and Kuldeep Yadav receiving nods while Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah make the place for them. After losing the ICC Champions Trophy final against Pakistan, India will definitely be hoping for a dominant show on this tour. The first match of the series will be played on June 23rd at the Queens Park Oval in Trinidad and Tobago and the tour goes on till July 9th.

The team is as follows:

Jason Holder (C), Devendra Bishoo, Jonathan Carter, Roston Chase, Miguel Cummins, Shai Hope (WK), Alzarri Joseph, Evin Lewis, Jason Mohammad, Ashley Nurse, Kieran Powell, Rovman Powell, Kesrick Williams.
