ST. JOHN’S, Antigua – The Selection Panel of Cricket West Indies has announced a 14-member WINDIES “B” squad for the Cricket Canada Summerfest from Wednesday, August 29 to September 7.

The team will play a series to include four T20s (including a warm-up) along with two 50-overs matches. A WINDIES B Team was in Canada a few months ago and was a beaten finalist in the inaugural Global T20. Anthony Bramble was also the captain of the team.

Fresh from an exciting 102 runs from 58 balls, Kimani Melius, the leading run-scorer for the Under 19 Championship now on in St Vincent is part of the squad for this 9-day tournament.

CWI Director of Cricket Jimmy Adams: “The upcoming WINDIES “B” Tour to Canada will provide another opportunity for our young players to gain experience in the shorter formats. The itinerary comprises both Twenty20 and 50 overs-a-side formats and has allowed CWI to have a look at players who are not involved with the ongoing CPL. This tournament has the potential to assist our player development processes by exposing more of our younger players to more competitive environments.”

Why Bramble captaining the squad? Hamilton in the squad surely he gotta be the first choice keeper!

Psychologist?

In reply to anthonyp… and?

In reply to natty_forever

We need another specialist cappo?

Bramble can't make that XI as a specialist batsman..

In reply to anthonyp
Hamilton will play as a Batsman as he did in the A team against England lions

In reply to anthonyp… we play specialist cappos tho!

Who are the pacers?...I recognise Sherman Lewis and Kyle Mayers...anyone else?

In reply to goliath

Justin Greaves.. Sheeno Berridge & Derval Green are pacers/seamers.

Trinis truly deemed persona non grata by this administration and set of selectors.

In reply to imusic

Trinis dont play B cricket

Who are they playing tho?

In reply to TyTy35

Quadrangular series with Canada, Canada A (really a developmental squad), and Toronto Bears (a bunch of club cricket imports from the Caribbean who play in the Toronto leagues).

Toronto Bears will have players like Royston Crandon, Kamil Pooran, Raj Nanan, etc.

Oh thanks for the info, kudos to CWI they are definitely trying to develop the game in North America

Good on CWI for affording these players an opportunity to play

Of course, that’s simply what CWI is supposed to do. The fact that they’re being commended for doing their job is an indicator of how poor a job they’ve been doing all along

Nice job by Cricket Canada securing a Windies representative team.

This yute K Melius. Let's track his development. Good exposure for this under 19 player. Think he is bout 17 yrs old now.
