T&T cricketer Amir Jangoo has earned his maiden call-up to the West Indies Test team.
His performances in recent months saw him picked in the West Indies white-ball squad to face Bangladesh.
Jangoo’s international career then started with an unbeaten 104 in the third ODI against the Tigers.
Now, the left-hander is in a 15-man squad to travel to Pakistan for two Tests in January.
This would be the first time West Indies play a Test series in Pakistan in 18 years.
Also returning to the line-up is Gudakesh Motie who was unavailable for the recent drawn Test series against Bangladesh.
Head Coach Andre Coley says, “Motie rejoins the squad to bolster the spin attack, while Jangoo’s selection comes on the back of his consistency across formats in regional cricket, as well as his demonstrated high level of competency against spin bowling.”
Shamar Joseph will continue his rehabilitation from injury, while Alzarri Joseph will be unavailable due to other engagements.
The Pakistan series runs from January 17th to 29th, 2025 at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
