Holder, Cottrell, Hosein among reserves in Pollard-led squad
Nearly a decade after winning the T20 World Cup with West Indies in Sri Lanka, seamer Ravi Rampaul has a chance to add to his title after being picked in West Indies’ 15-member squad for the forthcoming global tournament.
Rampaul, now 36, had last played a T20I for West Indies in November 2015, but is now back in the mix after emerging the best seamer on the spin-friendly St Kitts tracks in the ongoing CPL.
Offspin-bowling allrounder Roston Chase, who is uncapped in T20Is, elbowed his way into the squad after impressing in both CPL 2020 and 2021 for the St Lucia franchise. However, there was no place for Sunil Narine and Jason Holder was only part of the reserves.
West Indies squad: Kieron Pollard (capt), Nicholas Pooran (vice-capt), Fabian Allen, Dwayne Bravo, Roston Chase, Andre Fletcher, Chris Gayle, Shimron Hetmyer, Evin Lewis, Obed McCoy, Ravi Rampaul, Andre Russell, Lendl Simmons, Oshane Thomas, Hayden Walsh Jr.
Reserves: Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, Sheldon Cottrell, Darren Bravo
