Jamaica selectors on Sunday named their Carib Beer and Stanford Twenty20 squads after the completion of the final four-day trial match at Melbourne Oval.

Spinner Gavin Wallace and batsman Donovan Sinclair, who represented Jamaica in the KFC Cup, are the uncapped first class players, while Jowayne Robinson is the only newcomer in the Stanford Twenty20 squad, which saw the omission of Jermaine Lawson.

Wavell Hinds and David Brendan, who both missed the KFC Cup because of suspension and poor form, were recalled, and along with Carlton Baugh, Xavier Marshall, and Jermaine Lawson are the players with Test experience.

Australian Brendon Nash, who played for Australian province Queensland but migrated to Jamaica earlier this year, has also won favour with the selector.

Team leader

Tamar Lambert will lead the team for the first three matches, scheduled to be played at home - after which five West Indies players - Chris Gayle, Brenton Parchment, Marlon Samuels, Jerome Taylor and Daren Powell, all of whom are in the Twenty20 squad, will return for the fourth round of the Carib Beer Series.

Coach Junior Bennett said "... it's a fairly balanced squad" and believe they can "... come up with right combination from that squad for the first match.

"When you look at it, you are down to 18 now and you need 13 for your first game, so there are a few days to prepare and another three-day practise match before the first match against Leeward Islands," he added.

"When you look at this squad here, most of the batsmen have played for Jamaica at some point in time and this is another opportunity for them to put up their hands and be counted.

"In terms of experience, yes, they are young, but they have been around for a while now and this simply means they have to come now and do justice to their talent."

For the Stanford Twenty20, the West Indies players are scheduled to fly straight into Antigua, a day before Jamaica's opening match against The Bahamas.

This means Jamaica, which is only allowed 13 players for the opening game, will have to travel with eight players and hope that Gayle, Parchment, Samuels, Powell and Taylor arrive on time.

Dilemma

If they don't arrive on time, Jamaica will face a dilemma with only eight players for the opening game.

"That is why the selection committee named five reserves, in case we will have to replace them.

"Some form of contingency plan will have to be put on place to deal with that. I know they are looking into it."
