By IANSTuesday, June 30, 2009
St.JOHN’S - West Indies cricket selectors named an unchanged 13-member sqaud for the last two one-dayers against India.
All-rounder Darren Sammy failed to find a place in the side while Jamaican all-rounder David Bernard Jr, who has played five Tests and 23 ODIs, was retained.
The 25-year-old Sammy was dropped from the one-day team that toured England after featuring in just a single ODI match at Bristol.
Bernard, 27, was recalled for the tour to England after spending six years in wilderness. But Bernard couldn’t play a single match in England.
The last two ODIs will be played Friday and Sunday at the Beausejour Stadium in St. Lucia. West Indies and India are levelled 1-1 in the four-match series.
Squad: Chris Gayle (captain), Denesh Ramdin (vice-captain), Lionel Baker, Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo, Sulieman Benn, David Bernard, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Runako Morton, Ravi Rampaul, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Jerome Taylor.
