Teams Named For Headley Weekes Tri-Series

The Cricket West Indies Senior Men’s Selection Panel today named the squads for the upcoming Headley Weekes Tri-Series. Team Headley, named in honour of George Headley, will be captained by Joshua Da Silva, the wicket-keeper-batter. Team Weekes, named in honor of Sir Everton Weekes, will be led by Alick Athanaze, the left-handed top-order batter. The two teams have been drawn from the leading performers in the 2023 West Indies Championship and those deemed to be on the fringe of the Test team and also for players who the selectors believe would benefit from playing red-ball cricket as West Indies prepare for the upcoming “A” Team tour of Bangladesh and the Two-Test Series against India at home. The third team involved the West Indies Academy was unveiled last year and played CG United Super50 Tournament last November.
