West Indies name squad for Ireland, England ODIs
West Indies have named their squad for the upcoming ODI series against Ireland and England, with Shai Hope set to lead the 15-member squad, which is largely similar to the one that beat Bangladesh 3-0 in the three-match ODI series last year. Shimron Hetmyer doesn’t feature in the squad due to being involved in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Meanwhile, big names like Brandon King, Evin Lewis and Keacy Carty have been named in the squad. Shamar Joseph and Matthew Forde are also back in the side after pulling out of Bangladesh series. West Indies will be playing a three-match ODI series against Ireland from May 21-25. Later, they will play three ODIs against England from May 29 to June 3.
"These matches form a critical component towards the 2027 World Cup and there are signs of the team building consistency following the series sweep against Bangladesh and the win over England late last year," West Indies head coach Daren Sammy said.
"We expect the conditions to be challenging but we are creating a culture and mindset which emphasise playing the brand of cricket that is taking us closer to some of our overall objectives."
West Indies ODI squad: Shai Hope (c), Jewel Andrew, Keacy Carty, Roston Chase, Matthew Forde, Justin Greaves, Amir Jangoo, Alzarri Joseph, Shamar Joseph, Brandon King, Evin Lewis, Gudakesh Motie, Sherfane Rutherford, Jayden Seales, Romario Shepherd
