Joshua Bishop Earns Maiden Call-up As WI Name 15-member Squad For Pakistan Test Series
Brian Lara Cricket Academy: Left-arm spinner Joshua Bishop has earned his maiden Test call-up to the West Indies squad for the upcoming two-match series against Pakistan, scheduled to be played in Trinidad from July 25 to August 6.
Roston Chase will captain the side after being forced to sit out the recently concluded ODI series against New Zealand due to an injury to his right index finger. Jomel Warrican will serve as the vice-captain as the selectors retained the core of the squad that secured a 1-0 Test series victory over Sri Lanka earlier this month.
West Indies currently occupy the eighth spot in the nine-team WTC standings, while Pakistan sit at the bottom of the table. Bishop has been rewarded for his impressive form in regional cricket, having taken 91 wickets for Barbados Pride and the West Indies Academy across the past three West Indies Championship seasons - the highest tally by any bowler in that period.
