Hello everyone how are you feeling I hope all is well 🫀Today I am talking about West Indies Cricket who announced their T20 squad for the home series against South Africa.
Cricket West Indies (CWI) is pleased to announce the squad for the upcoming T20 home series against South Africa. The series will be played in Trinidad from 23 to 27 August.

After losing the Test series, West Indies have to play a home series against South Africa to try to improve from the three Test matches. West Indies standouts Ruvam Powell and Nicholas Pooran remain part of the series, but two all-rounder cricket stars are out. West Indies are set for their first T20 series after an early exit in the T20 World Cup in June. There are no major changes in their squad. Miles, the director of the CWI, accepted both Russell's and Holder's request for a break.
The selected squad for the T20 series is as follows:Rovman Powell (Captain), Roston Chase (Vice-Captain), Alick Athanaze, Johnson Charles, Matthew Forde, Shimron Hetmyer, Fabian Allen, Shai Hope, Akeal Hosein, Shamar Joseph, Obed McCoy, Gudakesh Motie, Nicholas Pooran, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd.
My opinion
After losing the Test series, the West Indies team is ready to return to the field. The squad includes big stars who will be beneficial for the team. I don't think the absence of Russell and Holder will cause problems in the team, if they try to play as a team they will never lose. Facing a strong South African team will be a great opportunity for the team to reset the game plan and refocus. This is a big T20 series where both the teams will use their skills and experience to see who wins.
What's your opinion about T20 squad? Are you excited for this series? Tell me in comment section 🫀.
