Interesting squad, with a focus on youth....
Both Odean and Samuels are injured, and not selected. Parchment has been dropped, and the claim is that Santokie is not fit enough. Lambert is obviously in the squad as a spinner who can bat a bit.
Xavier Marshall continues to be omitted, but Taylor is back...though, by all reports, he's not the same bowler he once was.

A subjective metric designed to stifle...we self.
Which only holds weight if Jerome Taylor remains up to speed and on par. Observing how his fitness, or lack of, is managed will be entertaining.
Not fit enough, er... Sheldon Cotterrell....
As the West Indies selectors found out, fit don't take wickets or score runs. Well, we must have a really strong line up if he can't even make the stand by's. If fit, Brung would have been picked, so I guess Cotterrell/Taylor got lucky twice.

OH : " They knew you had a back problem "
KS: " Yes, I played 4 trails match's with it, (for a 5 games tournament), more than enough proof of my fitness "

It seems other, more prominent, members of the squad are not subject to the same standards of fitness.
So having agreed to pay for a J$100 000 injection, and prove his fitness, he was still dropped.
