After the conclusion of their ongoing series against England, the West Indies will go on to face Bangladesh in a multi-format series. Both sides will lock horns across two Tests and three ODIs and will conclude the series with three T20I matches.
Ahead of the two-game Test series, Cricket West Indies (CWI) took centre stage and announced their squad for the two Test matches. It is worth noting that the first Test is all set to be held at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua from November 22-26.
Furthermore, the second Test of the series will be held at the Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica, from November 30-December 4. The Windies will be led by Kraigg Brathwaite, with Joshua Da Silva being the deputy. The side will boast a mix of seasoned stars and fresh names as well. The likes of Alick Athanaze, Keacy Carty, Justin Greaves, and more stars have been named in the squad as well.
Currently, the Windies are in the midst of a T20I series against England. Both sides are set to face each other across five T20Is. The first three games of the series have been won by England, and the visitors have even clinched the series as well.

With only two games left, the hosts will hope to register some consolation victories. The fourth T20I of the series will be held at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia, on Saturday, November 16. Having lost the first three T20Is, the Windies have often looked helpless against an in-form English team.
However, with the two remaining T20Is, the hosts will hope that they can put in a good showing and heavily improve.
