ST JOHN’S, Antigua – The West Indies Senior Men’s Selection Panel today named Roston Chase as the replacement for Obed McCoy in the 15-member squad for the T20 International Series (T20I) against South Africa starting on 25 March. McCoy was named in the original squad subject to medical clearance but has been ruled out of the upcoming series due to a knee injury.



Lead Selector The Most Hon. Dr Desmond Haynes said: “Roston gets an opportunity in the upcoming series as we see him being a versatile player who can be called upon at any stage in the game..."

I don't understand how you replace a fast man with someone who bowls spins occasionally cause their main role is a batsman.

God loves Roston Chase

Chase and Holder are easily the most qualified players for all three formats.

Keep it going Chief Salecta, Desmond Haynes!

Test cricket is destroying Chase's T20 game! evil

Chase needs to concentrate on what's important. Leave that test nonsense in the past.

God doesn't need to love Chase -just his countryman Dessie Haynes - as long as Haynes remains Chairman of Selectors

Well they say God is a Bajan and Dessie is a Christian, so Dessie is God's representative on earth and is doing his bidding by picking Chase.

...of course there had to be divine intervention for Chase to be picked...in case anyone is wondering.

The LS is insuring that (some) cricketers who won't get a franchise call up earn some money. He seems quite committed to maintaining the welfare state WI cricket has become. Just to think that 3 short years ago Roston topped the CPL runs chart and the thinking was he'd catch some IPL $$$. Alas! He's had to settle for a Windian pay day and along came DH.

Mind you, it's not just Chase who needs to be kept on the payroll!
