West Indies have made a couple of changes to their squad for the final three games of the ongoing T20I series against England. Fast bowler Alzarri Joseph makes a return to the squad following his two-match suspension and replaces Shamar Joseph.
The other is a forced change as veteran allrounder Andre Russell has been ruled out for the remainder of the series with a left ankle sprain. Shamar Springer has replaced Russell in the squad.
The changes have been made to script a comeback in the series, as West Indies have already lost two matches, and one more loss will take the series away from their grasp. Notably, Alzarri was kept out of the squad for the first two games of the series as he was suspended for two games following his unprofessional conduct on the field of play in the third ODI.
Alzarri had left the field unannounced during the third ODI in anger after having a disagreement with his captain Shai Hope regarding a field placement.
West Indies squad for remaining three T20Is:
Rovman Powell (c), Roston Chase, Matthew Forde, Shimron Hetmyer, Terrance Hinds, Shai Hope, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Brandon King, Evin Lewis, Gudakesh Motie, Nicholas Pooran, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd, Shamar Springer
