West Indies will see the return of Captain Stafanie Taylor who missed the recent tournament against touring South Africa in Antigua. Also, Shemaine Campbelle has impressed the selectors during a practice match and will make a comeback in the side.

Ann Browne-John, Lead Selector, said:

“The upcoming Pakistan series and World Cup qualifiers are crucial as the team works towards participation in the Cricket World Cup in 2022. It is important to note that Shemaine Campbelle is once again fit and available after being away through injury. She is one of the senior players and has shown herself to be one of the premier wicket-keepers in the world. She scored runs in the practice match since her return.”
Browne-John added:

“The captain Stafanie Taylor who missed the South Africa Series is also back which also serves to strengthen both the batting and bowling. The squad has a mix of senior and developing players and particular mention must be made of two young players, Qiana Joseph and Rashada Williams, who had very encouraging series against South Africa, and hopefully, they will go from strength to strength.”

West Indies women will arrive in Pakistan on 1st November and will undergo a quarantine process before kick-starting their campaign from 8th November onwards. Post the series, West Indies will travel to Zimbabwe for the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier 2021 to be held from 21 November to 5 December. In total, three qualifying places are up for grabs for the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in New Zealand in February 2022.
