ST.JOHN’S: Spinner Sunil Narine has been picked in the 15-man West Indies squad for the World T20 despite being suspended from bowling since November last year.

Narine was reported for suspect action during the West Indies’ tour of Sri Lanka in November. The off-spinner was also named in the 2015 World Cup squad but later withdrew to rectify his action.

Darren Sammy will captain the squad in the tournament, beginning March 8 in India. The squad has star players like Chris Gayle, Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo. Interestingly, 11 players out of 15 were part of the squad which won the World T20 in 2012. The fresh faces in the squad are Test and ODI captains — Jason Holder and left-arm spinner Sulieman Benn. Squad: Darren Sammy (captain), Samuel Badree, Sulieman Benn, Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo, Andre Fletcher, Chris Gayle, Jason Holder, Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard, Denesh Ramdin, Andre Russell, Marlon Samuels, Lendl Simmons, Jerome Taylor.–PTI
