Will Lead Selector Roger Harper and his selection panel have a headache to select the West Indies teams for those matches against Sri Lanka, asked Brandon Corlette of Guyana Times as Sri Lanka toured the Caribbean island yesterday (23). Sri Lanka will commence their campaign against the West Indies on 3 March in Antigua, and all the Windies players are available. Lead Selector Roger Harper has said recent and past performances would influence selection of the West Indies T20, ODI, and Test teams. Regular Test Captain Jason Holder, having recently been placed in the fire by former cricket legends for his “poor leadership” while Kraigg Brathwaite having displayed outstanding leadership qualities, reigning supreme in Bangladesh, many are calling for Brathwaite to lead the Test team against Sri Lanka. The West Indies T20 team is expected to be finalised and announced shortly, followed by the ODI and Test teams.
