The West Indies women's cricket team has announced an unchanged 15-member squad for their upcoming three-match T20I series against Australia, scheduled to take place from March 19 to 23 at Arnos Vale Cricket Ground in St. Vincent. The squad, led by Hayley Matthews, includes experienced players like Stafanie Taylor, Deandra Dottin, and Shemaine Campbelle, as well as young talents like Eboni Brathwaite and Jahzara Claxton. This series is a crucial part of their preparation for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup in England later this year. "We're really excited about the opportunity to play the number one ranked ODI and T20 team in the world," head coach Shane Deitz said. "It's just before the World Cup, so it's a great opportunity to see where we are in our preparation. Playing against the best team in the world, we can see where our deficiencies are and where things are working well as we look forward to the tournament in June in England. The first T20I is scheduled for March 19 followed by the next two on March 21 and 23. The teams will also play a three-match ODI series following the T20Is at Warner Park in St. Kitts and Nevis. The tour was also supposed to include a Test match but it was dropped with the hosts wanting to prioritise white-ball cricket ahead of the T20 World Cup. Hayley Matthews is gearing up for a tough series against Australia, but she's confident in her team's abilities. The West Indies squad is looking to showcase their skills and progress since their last meeting with Australia in October 2023. Sounds like they're ready to put on a show!
