West Indies include Hetmyer for India ODIs

Port of Spain: The West Indies have recalled star batter Shimron Hetmyer for their upcoming ODI series against India at home.

Hetmyer hasn't featured for the Caribbean side in almost a year, but earns a recall on the back of a solid season in the Indian Premier League with the Rajasthan Royals that netted a total of 299 runs from 13 innings.

The left-hander hasn't played an ODI for the West Indies in two years, with Hetmyer's last appearance in a 50-over contest coming against Australia in July 2021.

Regulars Nicholas Pooran and Jason Holder are unavailable for the series, with wicket-keeper batter Shai Hope once again named as captain for the three matches.

The first ODI commences in Barbados on Thursday, with the series of extra importance for India ahead of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup later this year.

West Indies failed to qualify for the 50-over World Cup this year after they finished outside the top two in the recent ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament in Zimbabwe.

West Indies squad:
Shai Hope (c), Rovman Powell (vc), Alick Athanaze, Yannic Cariah, Keacy Carty, Dominic Drakes, Shimron Hetmyer, Alzarri Joseph, Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Gudakesh Motie, Jayden Seales, Romario Shepherd, Kevin Sinclair, Oshane Thomas
