As the West Indies T20 International squad traveled from Bangladesh to New Zealand, other players have started to assemble in Antigua for a high-performance camp.

The West Indies demolished Bangladesh 3-0 in the recent T20Is – the final victory came on Friday night at the Bir Shrestha Shahid Flight Lieutenant Motiur Rahman Stadium in Chattogram.

They will now face New Zealand in five T20Is starting at Eden Park in Auckland on Wednesday night (2:15am Barbados Time). After the T20Is the two teams will meet in three one-Day Internationals which will be followed by two Test matches.

Players have also been notified of selection for these squads and have started training at the Coolidge Cricket Ground in Antigua under the guidance of the CWI High Performance and Academy staff.

CWI is yet to announce the squads for the three formats, but among then are middle order batsman Keacy Carty, wicket-keeper Tevin Imlach, opener John Campbell, left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican and experienced fast bowler Kemar Roach, who is expected to make a return to the Test team after nine months on the sidelines.
