The West Indian selectors have decided to hand Darren Bravo a maiden West Indies call-up for the first two one-day internationals against India later this month.

 

A left-hand batsman, Bravo scored 605 runs at 43.21 for Trinidad & Tobago in the domestic four-day competition. He was part of the West Indies Under-19 team that played in the 2008 World Cup.

 

With Fidel Edwards unavailable due to lower back injury the selectors have decided to include all-rounder David Bernard in the team. Bernard last played an ODI in 2003 but was part of the ICC World Twenty20 squad.

 

Narsingh Deonarine, another left-handed batsman, has also been included. He was the leading run-scorer in the four-day competition with 1,068 runs at 59.33 with seven half-centuries. Deonarine last played an ODI in 2007.

 

The first two ODIs are on June 26 and 28 in Kingston.

 

The squad: Chris Gayle (capt), Denesh Ramdin (wk), Lionel Baker, Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo, Sulieman Benn, David Bernard, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Runako Morton, Ravi Rampaul, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Jerome Taylor.
