West Indies name squad for India series, Kraigg Brathwaite dropped
West Indies have named their squad for the upcoming two-match Test series against India starting on October 2. In a surprising move, veteran player and former skipper Kraigg Brathwaite has been dropped from the 15-member squad. West Indies, meanwhile, have included Alick Athanaze and Tagenarine Chanderpaul n the squad. There has also been a maiden Test call-up for left-arm spinner Khary Pierre.
"The return of Tagenarine Chanderpaul is to help transform our fortunes at the top of the order given the recent struggles, with Alick Athanaze being added for his strengths and qualities against spin bowling. Khary is included for the first time as our second spinner in what we expect to be helpful conditions," West Indies head coach Daren Sammy said in a statement.
The first test between West Indies and India will begin on October 2 at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. And the second Test will be played from October 10 to 14 at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
