Four Windies seniors to skip T20Is against SL, Russel, Pooran included

West Indies will be without their senior players Andre Russell, Nicholas Pooran, Akeal Hosein and Shimron Hetmyer as the quartet has opted out of the upcoming three-match T20I series in Sri Lanka citing "personal reasons." The revamped selection committee under head coach Darren Sammy recalled opening batter Evin Lewis and Brandon King, while handing maiden call-ups to pace bowling allrounders Terrance Hinds and Shamar Springer, according to a CWI release. Lewis makes a comeback after the 2022 T20 World Cup, while King returns after recovering from a side injury that largely kept him out of the T20 World Cup earlier this year.

The 35-year-old Narine, who quit International cricket in 2023 and played his last T20I for West Indies way back in 2019, has taken the IPL by storm both with the bat and ball. "I'm so happy for Sunil to be honest. I think getting close to 500 runs is no joke, being a premier bowler that is going to look to bowl four overs and has 16 wickets under his belt in this season as well, that just goes to show the true all-roundership in him," Russell said on Star Sports Cricket Live. The lefthander has scored 482 runs, giving Kolkata Knight Riders flying starts in the power-play and also taken 16 wickets with a tidy economy rate of 6.90 to play a key role in their final appearance.
