West Indies have named their squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against England, beginning on Thursday in Antigua. The notable inclusion in the squad is Shimron Hetmyer, who marks his return to the ODI side after a long period. Hetmyer replaces Alick Athanaze in the squad that recently toured Sri Lanka. Hetmyer last played ODIs for West India in December 2023. Shai Hope will be leading the side. 

"Playing against England always provides a new challenge and reignites a rivalry that the players and the people of the Caribbean are eager for. Somehow, we West Indies always find a way to raise our game when we face England,” West Indies head coach, Daren Sammy said.
