Cricket West Indies is struggling hard to build a solid squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup which is barely two months away. They will need to play the first round of the tournament to qualify for the Super 12 round. But the unavailability of players has become a matter of concern for the selectors.
Following the issue, the West Indies head coach Phil Simmons expressed his discontent and made a remark about the players who have declared themselves unavailable because of their commitment to franchise cricket. He noted, “We cannot beg people for playing for their country.”
Among the big names apart from Russell, the availability of Sunil Narine, Evin Lewis, and Oshane Thomas is also doubtful.
