Chanders out of ODI squad

Shivnarine Chanderpual will join Jacobs as a spectator for the upcoming ODI series against Australia. Chanderpaul, who batted for a match-winning 104 and the Man of the Match award in the last Test, was nursing a fractured middle finger since day 2.

As a result, he will be allowed the period to recover. Chanderpaul is expected to be out for the Sri Lankan leg of the West Indies home stand as well. This is undoubtedly a big blow for the West Indies team.

No word yet as to whether the WICB will appoint a replacement for the 7 ODI series starting on Saturday in Jamaica.
