West Indies announced 15-member team
West Indies have included explosive all-rounder Andre Russell in their team, who performed well in the three-match T20I series against Australia this year. Batsman Shimron Hetmyer, who could not play in the T20I series against Australia, has been included in the World Cup team. Hetmyer is currently playing for Rajasthan in IPL 2024 and is batting well while playing the role of finisher.
West Indies did not select Kyle Mayers in its team for the World Cup, who was part of the team in the T20I series against Australia, while fast bowler Oshane Thomas was also dropped from the team. The reason for Kyle Mayers is that West Indies have selected a lower order batsman in their team. For this important tournament, batsmen like Johnson Charles, Brandon King and Shai Hope have been included in this team, who bat brilliantly at the top order, while Nicholas Pooran, Powell, Jason Holder, Sherfane Rutherford and Romario Shepherd are included in this team. There are many big hitters and all-rounders.
