White Ball Head Coach Daren: The West Indies have announced the 15-man squad for the upcoming home T20I series against South Africa, with stand-in skipper Brandon King leading the side in the absence of regular captain Rovman Powell, who remains at the IPL with Rajasthan Royals.

The three-game series, scheduled from May 23–26 in Jamaica, acts as final preparation for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, with a host of their stars to feature against the Proteas.

Top-order performers Shai Hope and Nicholas Pooran will sit out the matches to gain some valuable rest prior to the start of the T20 World Cup following lengthy stints at the IPL. They will join the World Cup squad in Trinidad on May 27.
