Antigua, Nov 16 (Reporter) Kraigg Brathwaite will lead a 15-member squad for the two-game Test series against Bangladesh. Both games will be a part of the World Test Championship.
Currently, Bangladesh and West Indies are 8th and 9th on the WTC standings respectively, with a point percentage of 27.50 and 18.52.
West Indies will miss the services of their former captain and pace all-rounder Jason Holder who continues his rehabilitation of a shoulder injury.
The squad is an exciting mix of seasoned names and upcoming talent, with in-form Justin Greaves, who has had a sensational run in the domestic white-ball competition, boosting the batting ranks. Kevin Sinclair also returns to the squad as an added spin option, an ICC report said.
Test Squad:
Kraigg Brathwaite (c), Joshua Da Silva (vc), Alick Athanaze, Keacy Carty, Justin Greaves, Kavem Hodge, Tevin Imlach, Alzarri Joseph, Shamar Joseph, Mikyle Louis, Anderson Phillip, Kemar Roach, Jayden Seales, Kevin Sinclair, Jomel Warrican
