This means Bravo and the other players selected will not be going to India?

Afro?
:lol:
Could this be the XI?

1) Rajendra Chandrika
2) Danza Hyatt
3) Kyle Corbin
4) Jonathan Carter
5) Dwayne Bravo
6) Nkrumah Bonner
7) Andre Russell
8) Devon Thomas
9) Carlos Brathwaite
10) Veerasammy Persaud
11) Pascal/Gabriel

They could still go to India, Bally, since in India the Tests come first, and these are primarily players who are in contention for ODI places and not Test places....

Not really over the moon about this squad it has to be said, but i'm happy for Corbin and Brathwaite though, they were sensational for CCC in the four day competition, also Russell playing suggests that they want to see him in more four day cricket before he gets another Test chance which is good i think,

My team

Chandrika
Hyatt
Corbin
Carter
Bravo (c)
Bonner
Thomas (wk)
Russell
Brathwaite
Permaul
Pascal

But where's Holder and Kantasingh? very surprised about that one, hopefully they'll get a chance in the second test, would also have liked to have seen Lesporis and Hughes get a chance, decent young batters in the long form of the game, i'd back that squad to win though.

This is just the squad for the first 'Test', so don't get too excited....
8-)
On the plus side, potential ODI players for the tour of India (Bravo, Hyatt, Brathwaite and Russell) will at least have some match practice while the India Tests are going on, so when this quartet are summoned for the ODI series, at least they shouldn't be too rusty....
