Kemar Roach is set to rejoin the West Indies Test team today. The 37 year old who is the most successful Windies bowler of the modern era, has been recalled and travelled to Christchurch New Zealand.

He was dropped earlier this year for the home series against Australia when the West Indies were hammered 3-0 and the away tour to India when they lost 2-0.

Roach has however regained favour with the selectors. He travelled to Antigua earlier this month for a camp and is among the players who will face the Black Caps in three Test matches starting December 2.

Among the others who arrived today is Ojay Shields the Jamaican fast bowler who has earned his first call up in Windies colours. The others who travelled are: Jomel Warrican, Tevin Imlach, Kavem Hodge, and Tagenarine Chanderpaul. (PS)
