All-rounder Roston Chase, John Cambell and Keemo Paul have been named in the 14-member ODI squad. Cambell was impressive in his last outing at the international circuit. He was part of a world record- opening stand of 179 runs along with Shai Hopes in Dublin against Ireland.

Fit-again Cambell is back in the ODI squad

He sustained an injury in the latter half of the series and didn”t take any further part in the tri-series. Both Chase and Cambell were left out of the Windies World Cup squad. The side led by Jason Holder managed to win just 2 games in the marquee event. They came very close to beating Australia and New Zealand but the side failed to provide the knock-out punch.

Brathwaite to lead in T20Is

In the T20s, Carlos Brathwaite will take charge of things and there are a few heavyweights in the squad to take on a strong Indian side. The T20I series will be followed by ODIs and we will be moving on to the Test matches in the second half of the itinerary.
