West Indies have announced a 15-member squad for the ODI series against Pakistan, with the three-match tournament scheduled to be played in Trinidad.<\/p>\n

The squad, led by Shai Hope, includes several young players who have been key for the Windies recently and sees the return of dynamic all-rounder Romario Shepherd. Shepherd is rejoining the West Indies ODI side for the first time since the series against Bangladesh last year.<\/p>\n

Eighteen-year-old wicket-keeper-batter Jewel Andrew, who debuted in ODIs against Sri Lanka last year, has retained his place after featuring in the ODI series in England earlier this summer. Left-arm pacer Jediah Blades, who earned his first cap against Bangladesh in 2024, has been recalled. Amir Jangoo, who scored a memorable century on his ODI debut against Bangladesh last year, also retains his spot after playing against Ireland in May.<\/p>\n

The West Indies are coming into the series following a 2-1 T20I series loss at home. Head coach Daren Sammy believes the series provides an opportunity to solidify their qualification for the 2027 ICC Men\u2019s Cricket World Cup.<\/p>\n

\u201cPakistan presents a different test and challenge as we continue our push for automatic qualification for the 2027 World Cup,” Sammy was quoted as saying.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile qualifying is our immediate goal, maintaining a winning mentality and team cohesion is essential for long-term success. The upcoming matches against teams like Pakistan, who are ranked higher, provide crucial opportunities to earn valuable ranking points to improve our standing ahead of the World Cup,” he added.<\/p>\n

West Indies are currently ranked 10th in the ICC Men\u2019s ODI Team Rankings, while Pakistan are positioned fourth, below India, New Zealand, and Australia.<\/p>\n
