Fidel Edwards has not been named in any of the West Indies squads for the start of the Digicel series against Pakistan.
The recuperating Barbadian fast bowler, however, has been in training with the squad during the past few days at the 3Ws Oval.
After an extended break from the game because of a back injury that needed surgery, Edwards made a successful return to first-class cricket for Barbados during the recent WICB regional four-day tournament in which he captured 22 wickets (average 23.77) in six matches.
He has been picked in a University of the West Indies Vice-Chancellor’s XI to face Pakistan at the Beausejour Stadium in St Lucia next Thursday, but he will also be eyeing selection to the West Indies team for the first Test starting on May 12 in Guyana.
