ST JOHN’S, Antigua – Cricket West Indies (CWI) is pleased to announce the 16-member squad that will contest a five-match T20 International series against the USA Cricket Under 19 Women's National Team, from 26 July to 3 August 2025, at the Sir Frank Worrell Cricket Ground in St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago.

 
The squad will be led by Trinidadian off-spinner Samara Ramnath with 16-year-old Barbadian Theanny Herbert-Mayers as the vice-captain.

The West Indies squad was selected after the recently concluded Rising Stars Under 19 35-over Championships in Trinidad, which was won by Barbados under Herbert-Mayers’ leadership and features a squad bustling with young talent eager to impress.

 
There are some familiar names and faces including skipper Ramnath who led the team at the second-ever ICC Under 19 Women’s T20 World Cup in Malaysia earlier this year.

 
She will have some other previous regional representatives for company including Jamaican Abigail Bryce, off spinning all-rounder NaiJanni Cumberbatch, who ended as leading wicket taker in the Rising Stars Under 19 tournament, 16-year-old Amrita Ramtahal and 17-year-old Brianna Harricharan.

The USA women’s U19 team should be playing the West Indies Men’s senior team in the 5 game series instead. It’s time the ‘Darren Sammy Brand 27 ’meet a team they can beat and make fans feel happy again
