The claims were duly quashed by head coach Phil Simmons and Cricket West Indies president Ricky Skerritt. The West Indies tour of India is also the first assignment for new chief selector Desmond Haynes. 바카라 웹사이트
“The team has been doing well in the T20I Series against England in Barbados and we decided to stick with the same group of players. They have demonstrated great skill and fight and we expect the same kind of performances on the tour of Indi,” Haynes said in a media release shared by CWI.바카라 웹사이트
Meanwhile, Shimron Hetmyer and Evin Lewis have been left out for their respective reasons although Simmons suggested both the players are very much in West Indies’ future plans. While Hetmyer is out on fitness grounds, Lewis is yet to return to competitive cricket after testing positive for COVID-19 ahead of Ireland series.바카라 웹사이트
Hetmyer is currently playing in the Pakistan Super League 2022 for the Quetta Gladiators squad. Haynes, a former captain, was also impressed by Rovman Powell and Akeal Hosein. Powell in particular caught everyone라이브 바카라 attention when he smashed the England bowlers for a 51-ball hundred in West Indies’ win in the third T20 game, which included 10 monstrous sixes.
Hosein, a left-arm finger-spinner, stepped up when his team needed with a 16-ball 44 batting at No.10, as West Indies nearly pulled off a memorable victory in the second game before losing by a single run.바카라 웹사이트
“I liked the innings that Powell played - I think that was fantastic. Here was a guy who struggled to play spin, I was told, and then he came in and the first shot (with which) he got off the mark was a sweep for six,” Haynes was quoted as saying.
“I was also very impressed with Akeal in that one run-defeat. He came in there and everybody thought it was over. He played exceptionally well and that라이브 바카라 what you want because in T20 cricket you want the guy batting up to No.11 to be able to hit a six,” added Haynes.바카라 웹사이트
