The West Indies have announced their squad for the two-match Test series against Bangladesh.
All-rounder Jason Holder is absent from the 15-member squad due to injury, with fellow all-rounder Anderson Phillip taking his place.
Spinner Kevin Sinclair has also returned to the squad. Alzarri Joseph, who was rested for the last series against South Africa, has made his comeback. Under Kraigg Brathwaite's leadership, the West Indies have announced a full-strength squad. Brathwaite's team last played a Test series in August against South Africa. Four changes have been made to that squad for this series, including one due to a shoulder injury.
