Roach, Hodge Return To West Indies Squad For NZ Tests
West Indies Test: Kemar Roach has been brought back into the West Indies Test squad for their December tour of New Zealand. The veteran fast bowler features in a 15-man group for the three-match series, stepping in as Shamar Joseph and Alzarri Joseph remain sidelined with injuries.
Roach, who last appeared in a Test in January in Multan during the Pakistan tour, adds valuable experience to a pace unit that otherwise lacks exposure. That attack includes 29-year-old Ojay Shields, who has earned his first Test call-up.
Allrounder Kavem Hodge has also returned to the squad after his most recent Test outing in Multan, while left-arm orthodox spinner Khary Pierre has been omitted.
