West Indies Board of Cricket has not announced their West Indies Squad For T20 World Cup 2024. The West Indies is the only team who wins the T20 title twice times. First in 2012 and Second in 2016.

The West Indies’ journey for the World Cup starts on 17 October 2022 vs Scotland at Hobart. Their 2nd encounter is against Zimbabwe and 3rd with Ireland. West Indies plays three Matches and needs to score as high points as they can to qualify for the Super 12 Round.

According to the Board, Nicholas Pooran take the charge of the team for the World Cup. It is 1st World Cup for Pooran as Captain, while Rovman Powell plays the role of vice-captain. 

The selectors have taken changes. Evin Lewis comes back after a year. Two debutants were also added to the squad. One is Yannic Cariah who is an all-rounder with leg-spin variety bowling and the Second all-rounder is Raymon Reifer with left arm power hitting ability. 

One advantage for West Indies is that they play 2 T20 match series with host Australia before World Cup begins.
