**ST JOHN’S, Antigua** – Cricket West Indies (CWI) is excited to announce the West Indies Test squad for the highly anticipated two-match series against Bangladesh. This home series, scheduled from November 22 to December 4, 2024, in Antigua and Jamaica, marks a crucial phase as the team aims to capitalise on home conditions and finish the World Test Championship on a high note.
Led by Kraigg Brathwaite, the squad features a promising mix of seasoned players in good form and fresh talent. The in-form Justin Greaves has been included in the team following a sensational run in the CG United Super50 Cup, where he scored three centuries. His recent performances have highlighted the importance of domestic platforms for nurturing the next generation of talent. Kevin Sinclair also returns to the squad as a valuable spin bowling option. However, Jason Holder will miss the series as he continues his rehabilitation for a shoulder injury.
West Indies fans throughout the region can watch the action on ESPN Caribbean, while in Bangladesh, the Toffee digital platform will broadcast the matches.
Tickets for the month-long series against Bangladesh are available online at tickets.windiescricket.com.
