Dottin named for women’s Windies T20 CWC squad

Two years after announcing her retirement, Deandra Dottin is back in the West Indies squad for the upcoming Women’s T20 World Cup in the UAE.

Dottin, the scorer of the fastest century in Women’s T20Is, made a sudden decision to quit in 2022, citing a “non-conducive” environment within the West Indies set-up.

She reversed that decision last month, and has been named in the 15-member squad announced by Cricket West Indies, which also features an uncapped player in Nerissa Crafton.

Also regaining a place are Ashmini Munisar Mandy Mangru, Cherry-Ann Fraser, Shabika Gajnabi, Rashada Williams, and Kate Wilmott.

The full team includes Hayley Matthews (Captain), Shemaine Campbelle (Vice-Captain), Aaliyah Alleyne, Afy Fletcher, Munisar, Chedean Nation, Chinelle Henry, Dottin, Karishma Ramharack, Mangru, Crafton, Qiana Joseph, Shamila Connell, Stafanie Taylor, And Zaida James.

West Indies begin their World Cup campaign on October 4 in Dubai against South Africa, and then have the rest of their group “B” games lined up against Scotland, Bangladesh and England.

The top two teams from the group will proceed to the semi-finals.

The final is scheduled for October 20.
