The tournament, which is being played in Barbados, bowls off on Saturday July 28th with three matches.

The home team will be skippered by Shai Hope in the absence of West Indies Test batsman Kraigg Brathwaite who is leading the Windies Under 19 team in Australia at the ICC Under 19 World Cup.

Guyana’s First Class batsman Chanderpaul Hemraj will partner with West Indies batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul’s son Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Shimron Hetmeyer in what is expected to be a formidable batting line up. Their first assignment will be against the Leeward Islands who will be coached by the newly appointed former West Indies wicketkeeper, Ridley Jacobs.

Former Test batsman Robert Samuels continues at the helm for Jamaica who will be managed by former West Indies and Jamaican spinner Nehemiah Perry.

Following the completion of the 3 Day version of the tournament, an ICC Under 20 team will join the six regional squads for the 50 Over segment which commences on August 19th.
