Forde Ruled Out of Three-match ODI Series Against Pakistan

Share

West Indies seamer Matthew Forde has been ruled out of the three-match ODI series against Pakistan that starts in Tarouba from Friday. Forde suffered a shoulder dislocation earlier on Wednesday while attempting a catch during a training session.

Johann Layne, the West Indies academy seam-bowling allrounder, has replaced Forde in the squad.

Layne is among the seamers that impressed Ian Bishop, who called him "rangy, tall and intelligent".

Jayden Seales, Shamar Joseph, Romario Shepherd and Jediah Blades are the quicks in their ODI squad with Gudakesh Motie as their frontline wristspinner.
