Your daily dose of cricket!
The first domestic series of the WTC 2025-27 Antilles came against Australia and were absolutely annihilated during the three games and faced a target.
Meanwhile, for the high profile series against India, the side directed by Roston Chase has reminded Tagenine Chanderpaul and Alick Athanize and handed the single call to the Khary Pierre spinner.
Generally, the Cricet West Indian selection committee has made three changes in the squad that closed its horns with the Aussies. The players who have been abandoned are Kraigg Brathwaite, Keacy Carty, Mikyle Louis and Johann Layne.
They hope that the presence of Chanderpaul and Athanaze will act as a great boost for the battal unit, and Spinner Pierre will strengthen the bowling unit.
Alzarri JosephShampa Joseph, Brandon King and Jayden Seales are other important names in the squad, but a player who will be missing the series is Gudakesh Motie, who has received rest to keep him cool for the next limited actions.
In the meantime, the Caribbean players will go to India on September 22 and will be on the ground in Ahmedabad on September 24, before starting their training.
