West Indies Mix Youth, Experience for Oz T20

Saint Lucia: West Indies named a 14-man squad on Saturday for the two Twenty20 internationals against Australia to be played at Beausejour on Tuesday and Barbados on Friday.

Seamers Fidel Edwards and Krishmar Santokie, batting all-rounders Dwayne Smith and Nkrumah Bonner, as well as left-arm spinner Garey Mathurin had all missed out on the ongoing ODI series which West Indies lead 2-1 ahead of Sunday's final match.

"We have named a squad with a mixture of experience and youth and we believe they have the quality to defeat the Australians," said West Indies chairman of selectors Clyde Butts.

"We have seen some progress in the ODI series and we expect that momentum to continue into the T20s. We also use these matches as part of our preparations for the World T20 in Sri Lanka in September.

The squad includes a number of three-dimensional players who bring energy and dynamism. They can change gears as the game progresses and give us options as well.

West Indies Twenty20 squad:

  • Darren Sammy (captain)
  • Dwayne Bravo
  • Carlton Baugh (wk)
  • Nkrumah Bonner
  • Darren Bravo
  • Johnson Charles
  • Fidel Edwards
  • Garey Mathurin
  • Sunil Narine
  • Kieron Pollard
  • Andre Russell
  • Marlon Samuels
  • Krishmar Santokie
  • Dwayne Smith
