Considering the event being held in Oman and the UAE, the selectors have chosen only one specialized spinner, Hayden Walsh Jr., And  Ravi Rampaul shall team up with Obed McCoy and Oshane Thomas among the pace bowlers. Former West Indies player Jason Holder is one of the 4 travelling reserves, despite not being assigned to the team.

Darren Bravo, Akeal Hosein, and Sheldon Cottrell were also picked backups with the all-rounder. In terms of significant dropouts, speedster Alzarri Joseph has not been examined, and Sunil Narine remains unavailable. Furthermore, CWI’s chief selector believes that this team would do well in the battle.

“The squad is one with good depth and strength in all departments. There is tremendous T20 experience along with World Cup-winning experience which should stand the team in good stead. This squad is made up of many world-beating players who, once knitted into a world-beating team, will be extremely difficult to beat,” he said in a statement.
