West Indies name 14-man squad for Pak ODI series

LAHORE: Test wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin will continue behind the stumps as West Indies dropped Carlton Baugh from the ODI squad, which takes on Pakistan in a five-match one day series starting on December 5.

Baugh kept wickets in the ICC Champions Trophy but the selectors reposed their faith on regular Test wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin.

The trio of Ian Bradshaw, Marlon Samuels and Dwayne Smith return to the side, taking over from Fidel Edwards, Corey Collymore and Omari Banks.

Uncapped batsman Lendl Simmons was preferred over Wavell Hinds in the side which plays its first ODI in Rawalpindi on 5 December.

ODI squad: Brian Lara (capt), Ramnaresh Sarwan, Ian Bradshaw, Dwayne Bravo, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Christopher Gayle, Dave Mohammed, Runako Morton, Daren Powell, Denesh Ramdin, Marlon Samuels, Lendl Simmons, Dwayne Smith, Jerome Taylor
