Last call for some of these names. The president's XI have the replacements in waiting.
Keemar definitely in with a chance.

I see that someone is thinking;it must be Jimmy Adams
Bishoo instead of Benn is a good pick. England's batsmen have been historically known to be rabbits against wrist spin.

Something wrong with the squad....not enough Bajans...only 8...I'd bet the test team will have at least that many....

@SirGarny you funny as hell.
Nice to see young players like Cornwall, Ambris, etc.. getting in the Pres Eleven after showing go promise in the recent tournament.
The ODI squad look weak in the bowling department. Alzarri not look the part yet as an IDO fast bowler. Need to learn more control and ability to bowl to the set field. I would put him in the President Eleven then draft him in for the Barbados ODI depend on how he bowled in the Pres Eleven after specific instructions.

Maybe the selectors are suggesting that Barbados is so "deep" at the bowling position that there was no room for him. I think not!
Makes no sense...
how the heck is Cummings good enough for international competition but can't make a Barbados team full of medium pacers?
Because the captain (medium pace..Holder) has to play...and WCT20 hero Carlos Braithwaite has to play.

I agree with your assessment of Joseph...but with Kemar Roach (Barbados) trying to make a comeback,
it's likely that Joseph may be the odd man out.
Wouldn't surprise me one bit!

Carter Cummins dowrich and Carlos all underperformed in the last odi series and the just concluded super 50. This training squad is like a minibus running from Rockley to Bridgetown. Nuff bajan passengers.

Carter performed better than Powell, Dowrich did not play on this tour, Cummins played 1 game, CB did not have a good series.
