Squads fortified ahead of Rounds 4 and 5 of the West Indies Championship

ST. JOHN’S, Antigua — The Windward Islands head into Round 4 of the West Indies Championship with a 16.6-point lead over the Leeward Islands 62.2 to 45.6, with Barbados Pride hot on both their heels with 43.8 points. The tight contest has served as a catalyst for teams overhauling their squads heading into Round 4.

All eight participating teams have made changes to their squads with Pride having the biggest swap. Kemar Roach and Jason Holder join the Pride, while Oshane Thomas will suit up for the Leeward Islands Hurricanes along with Hayden Walsh Jr. Another notable inclusion is Brandon King in the Jamaica Scorpions team and Roshon Primus swapped from Barbados Pride to the Combined Campuses and Colleges.

There will also be venue changes for Rounds 6 and 7 due to the unavailability of the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua. These matches will now be played at the Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad. There are also changes in the squads for Rounds 4 and 5 which starts on Wednesday 13 March.

Every West Indies Championship match will be streamed live with ball-by-ball commentary on the Windies Cricket YouTube channel.
