Promising Barbadian fast bowler Keon Harding has been added to the West Indies 15-man One-Day-International squad for the upcoming tour of Bangladesh later this month.

NATION SPORT has been reliably informed that the 24-year-old from Orange Hill, St James, will replace Guyanese right-arm medium pacer Romario Shepherd who has tested positive for COVID-19.

The 26-year-old Shepherd will now have to go into self-isolation, ruling him out of the tour.

While top officials at Cricket West Indies (CWI) remain tight-lipped, several sources have confirmed the stunning development. (AGB)
