ST. JOHN’S, Antigua – The Cricket West Indies (CWI) Senior Men’s Selection Panel today named the fifteen-man squad for the West Indies “A” Team tour of Bangladesh. Joshua Da Silva, the West Indies Test wicket-keeper/batter, will captain the team in the three four-day “Test” matches against Bangladesh “A” starting on 16 May.
Along with Da Silva, the 15-member squad includes other players with West Indies Test match experience: left-handed opener Tagenarine Chanderpaul, left-handed allrounder Raymon Reifer, fast bowler Anderson Phillip and left-arm spinner Gudakesh Motie.
The squad also includes three newcomers to the international level: openers Kirk McKenzie and Zachary McCaskie as well as fast bowler Jair McAllister. All three made their first-class debuts during the West Indies Championship four-day first-class tournament earlier this year.

Just think Alick Athanaze should be captain ahead of Joshua because he really looks like a gifted leader. Also, Desmond Haynes needs to tell us why Raymon Reifer ahead of Hodge who was the forth leading run getter in the West Indies 4 day championship while Riefer has only proven to a failed night watchman batter that does very little bowling. In todays world West Indies team should not be selected based on where they are from

No wonder we have to qualify to make it to the world cups.
We hail 1-2 performance wanting the player selected, when are we going to look at our Islands and demand them to put structures and programs in place, so all players can reach for the stars.
