Roston Chase named in West Indies squad for India Tests

The selection committee led by new chairman, Courtney Browne, decided to reward 24-year-old Barbados batsman Roston Chase with an opportunity to earn his maiden international cap. Chase’s inclusion comes in the wake of a strong domestic season in which he amassed 710 runs at an average of 59.16 and snared 23 wickets at 17.26 with his handy off spin.

The first Test starts at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua from July 21.
