4 tours to close off 2025 for WI Men

Nepal
India
Bangladesh
New Zealand

The West Indies senior men’s team will embark on high profile overseas tours to complete a busy year of international cricket for 2025

For the Nepal t20 series I would have Hetty as Cappo
With Shepard and Rutherfors.
Hopefully get back Forde Springer etc.
Because do you want to have some your test players finish a t20 series then have to go play Test in India 3 days after?

So I will have
Andrew
Mayers
Charles cause who else
Hetty
Rutherford
Shepard
Force
Kofi James
Bidasse
Young left arm steamer from Barbados
Also trying to remember de rest guys.

How does Kofi James make a WI T20 side when he’s played 14 CPL matches in 3 years, never played for WI A, & has a highest score of 37 averaging 17

Come on bruh

No Oshane Thomas?

Who going to be the fast bowler?

In reply to voiceofreason

Agree. If we were a properly run "organisation" we would have an A Team squad or Academy XI ready.

Look at his stats in the breakout league. What im saying is he's a talented player ans who else will we take assuming that the other guys will be in India.
You see where Barbadoa played him in the last game and he top scored?

In reply to Chrissy

Hahaha for now for now. Early time still. Lol

In reply to positiveg

Your picks are a far stretch - some

In reply to InHindsight

Yea but ita like who do we send?

In reply to positiveg

The most important tour is ODI series vs Bangladesh...West Indies has about 18-20 ODI matches before cut off date for qualification.... Bangladesh is just behind West Indies in ranking....

Indian test series is going to be very tough.....last time West Indies beat India in India 1996......
New Zealand full series is going to be very interesting...tough...but West Indies can win some matches....

In reply to imusic

Ravi Rampaul. At his age he can bowl better than the aforementioned Oshane.

Yeah I didnt know about a Bangla series until was announced not even a hint of it. But its good they got some cricket in and looking at ways to try ans pick up aome points.
I looking at more recent matches why went and choose XI for Nepal.
They juat announced the test squad ans nothing yet on Nepal. Aint wan to think they'll wait till after the Capal. But guess most the players done get a heads up.
WI can indeed pick off a few vs NZ as you said. Fully agree

With no Motie and Carty in the test squad, im guessing that they will be on their way to play in Sharjah.

In reply to positiveg

What is happening in Sharjah?

In reply to Kay

That’s where they playing the t20s vs Nepal
