Da Silva recalled for Sri Lanka Tests, axed Imlach to lead Select XI

Wed, Jun 17, '26 at 8:55 AM

The West Indies has recalled wicketkeeper-batter Joshua Da Silva for the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka, which will be played at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua from June 25 to July 7.


Da Silva, who amassed 996 runs across the last two seasons of the West Indies Championship, returns to the Roston Chase-led side alongside Amir Jangoo, the second-highest scorer from this year’s Championship.


The series signals the start of the final stretch of the current World Test Championship cycle, which the Caribbean side will conclude this year with a home Test series against Pakistan and a two-match series tour of Bangladesh.

Da Silva is rightfully back.

Chase retained is a joke, he should be nowhere near the test side.
