Lead Selector, The Most Hon. Dr. Desmond Haynes said: “We welcome Oshane and Shimron back into the group. Both have played at the international level before, with some success, and we believe they will fit well into the set-up. Oshane brings pace and is a potential wicket-taker with the new ball. Shimron’s style of batting will offer a lot especially in the middle stage of the innings and he is also a potential ‘finisher’.”

Kensington Oval hosts the first two matches in the three-match CG United ODI Series on Thursday July 27 and Saturday July 29.
