The Trinidadian top-order batsman Jason Mohammed and spinner Sunil Narine - were the new faces in West Indies' 15-man squad for the five-match ODI series in India. Both did well in the current Regional Super50 limited-overs competition, paving the way for their insertion. Mohammed won the Player of the Tournament honours in addition to the Richie Richardson Trophy after topping the run-charts with 227 runs in five outings.
Haynes also said that Narine's steady development over the past year earned him a spot. "Sunil bowled well in the Indian circumstances in Champions League for Trinidad and Tobago and then in the Super50 he was exceptional," Haynes said. "Batsmen have difficulty reading him and we thought that he is deserving of his selection to show his value against international batsmen.
"He is also a capable lower-order batsman who can give the team 30 to 40 runs and overall we are impressed with the way he approaches batting both for Trinidad and Tobago and in the recent West Indies A Team match in St Lucia." Darren Sammy will lead the West Indies side in the series, which kicks off on November 30 in Cuttack. Chris Gayle continual to miss out on selection, while Dwayne Bravo, who was dropped on form for the Bangladesh tour, was also left out.
Squad: Darren Sammy (capt), Adrian Barath, Darren Bravo, Danza Hyatt, Anthony Martin, Jason Mohammed, Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard, Kieran Powell, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Andre Russell, Marlon Samuels, Lendl Simmons
