CWI Women's selection panel on Wednesday named a 15-member squad and three reserves for the three-match ODI series against Pakistan Women and the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2021.
CWI also named three players who will be traveling with the squads as reserves. The touring squad sees a return for Shemaine Campbelle who missed the home series against Pakistan Women and South Africa Women due to injury. Campbell impressed the selectors and coaches in the lone practise match before departure, by striking a century in 107 deliveries, which included 12 fours and a six. Also returning to the squad is captain Stafanie Taylor, who missed the recent series against South Africa in Antigua.
"The upcoming Pakistan series and World Cup qualifiers are crucial as the team works towards participation in the Cricket World Cup in 2022. It is important to note that Shemaine Campbelle is once again fit and available after being away through injury. She is one of the senior players and has shown herself to be one of the premier wicket-keepers in the world. She scored runs in the practice match since her return," said the Lead Selector Ann Browne-John in an official CWI release.
