This is good to see, wishing to see more of ou players, once not playing at home getting a chance to show their skills, and for the younger players gain experience, overseas.

It shouldn’t be unless that’s what he wants. I don’t see anything from him to suggest that

But it’s no secret that as a fast bowler, he’s in the twilight of his career. Still one of the best seamers in the region and I suspect why CWI is managing his workload so carefully

I hope that both Pooran and Hetmyer can play English second division cricket this summer instead of meaningless T 20 and T 10 league cricket.

He's available from conclusion of test series v Sri Lanka to before test series v Pakistan.

Pooran's playing in The Hundred so maybe a chance of a short County stint might become available late in the season.

In Test and ODI cricket, Walsh and Ambrose played in both formats until they were about 38 and 37 years old respectively.

At 32 years old, Roach is fit enough to do the same for the WI, in both formats.
I hope the WI learnt their lesson from the last ODI world cup.
