Evin Lewis returned as West Indies named their squad of 15 players for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. The squad also has two uncapped players in Yannic Cariah and Raymon Reifer.
“We have selected a mixture of youth and experience to represent the West Indies,” said CWI Lead Selector. Desmond Haynes. “In the selection process, we have been cognizant of the ongoing CPL and we have been looking at the players who have been playing very well,” he added.
I said at the beginning of my tenure that I would be interested in giving players the opportunity and I think I have been consistent in doing that. I believe it is a very good team we have selected, and it is a team that will compete, given that we have to qualify from Round 1 into the Super12s.
West Indies play Zimbabwe on October 19 in its first match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 in the first round. Scotland and Ireland are the other teams in West Indies’ group The top two teams from Group B will join the Super 12s.
