19-year-old Lawes invited to senior high-performance camp ahead of Sri Lanka ODIs

Fri, May 15, '26 at 2:47 PM

Jamaica’s under-19 wrist-spinner Vitel Lawes has been included in the West Indies 17-member contingent to participate in a high-performance camp ahead of their home ODI series against Sri Lanka next month.


A statement from CWI revealed that the training camp, to be held from May 21–31, is “a key part of the team’s wider strategy to strengthen performance in the format over the next 18 months,” leading up to the 2027 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.


Pathway coach Nikita Miller has also been drafted in to continue his work with Lawes as well as to support the senior team’s spin-bowling programme.


Participants:


Shai Hope, Jewel Andrew, Ackeem Auguste, John Campbell, Keacy Carty, Roston Chase, Matthew Forde, Justin Greaves, Amir Jangoo, Alzarri Joseph, Shamar Joseph, Brandon King, Vitel Lawes (Development), Gudakesh Motie, Khary Pierre, Jayden Seales, Shamar Springer

I could never understand your CC.COM Yardies' vitriol directed at Sammy when he continues to grant opportunities to your comrades.

Perplexing.

You’re absolutely right.

Next on Sammy’s priority WI selection list, Oshane Thomas.

The mere fact that Oshane continues to suit up for Leewards means that Sammy still believes in him. Does Oshane believe in himself?

Everyone knows Sammy is CWI’s cricket GOD, but damn! Didn’t know his powers extended to selecting regional squads and starting XI’s as well.

Sammy is Allyuh Trump.

@imusic

The fact that OT out bowled all the other bowlers has nothing to do with his selection, just Sammy's love?!
