LOL West Indies B, were Guyana, Bermuda and the other two first class sides unavaiable...

Should be a interesting to see how our up and coming stars go.

 

[The Baconator]

As he seems to have left, will Bennett be available for selection in the squad?

 

[Jamee999]

He's not gone yet....

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Should be a good series. When will the squad be announced?

Looks like a great schedule with alot of matches so i'm sure all members of the squad will get some good game time. I'm just not too sure whether i could still sneak in the squad with so many good performances from a number of individuals this year.

 

[age_master]

indeed a great deal of discussion is going on as to the makeup of the squad.

 

[bugssy]

it will be a great series and selectuion will be tough. good luck to all those involved...

 

[Tom Halsey]

Good luck to all involved.

 

[superkingdave]

be interesting to see how our emerging players go on against a potentially explosive Windies team, hopefully Dave Mohammed or Gooljar might be involved

 

[Robertinho]

Hmm, looks good, will be good to see how two countries that both struggle a bit at Test level's 'A' team compare.

Good luck to the people selected, when they do..

 

[Nate]

Should be a great experience for both sides, though our group will have to gel pretty quickly. Best of luck to those selected, remain injury free.

 

[mikeW]

Should be an interesting tour good luck to all involved.

 

[Buddhmaster]

Should be good. Good luck to Rob, Bryce, etc, here's your chance to show the CWXI selectors your worth

 

[cbuts]

best of luck to those selected, big chance for you boys to put pressure on for selectoin in the top team

 

[Don]

good luck to every one selected

 

[NZTailender]

Good luck to those selected.

 

[Slats4ever]

are players or are playing in the Champions trophy as OD players, capable of making the A teams 4 day side

 

[Neil Pickup]

are players or are playing in the Champions trophy as OD players, capable of making the A teams 4 day side

The Champions Trophy and 'A' Tour will be running parallel to one another - CT players will not make the 'A' squad.

 

[age_master]

yep that took a number of players out of consideration (thus the delay in selecting the squad)
