Cricket West Indies, CWI, announced the Windies squad for the upcoming Home Series against South Africa, from August 7-19.
The series will be hosted across two venues, with the first Test being held at the Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad and Tobago, and the second and final Test Match in Guyana at the National Stadium.
Head Coach Andre Coley said “The squad we have chosen for this series is a balanced mix of experience and youth, strategically selected to maximize our performance in the conditions of Trinidad and Guyana.
