ST JOHN’S, Antigua The Cricket West Indies (CWI) Selection Panel named 30 players for an estimated month-long West Indies Women’s high-performance camp to be held in Antigua starting on May 2.
This will be the second such month-long camp in 2021 assembled under the guidance of Head Coach Courtney Walsh and his support team.
With the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifiers now rescheduled for December, Walsh devised a programme to maximise team preparations ahead of international cricket and the qualifiers later in the year.
“The purpose of this camp is to work on consistency and game awareness. The last camp was more observational, and we got a pretty good idea where the ladies are at. There are 30 players coming in and a few of them are coming in nursing injuries, so the coaching staff and medical team are ready to work with all of them,” he said.
