Tony Cozier23-Apr-2001The West Indies have once more shuffled the pack for the first twoOne-Day Internationals of the Cable & Wireless Series against SouthAfrica.Half of the 14 named yesterday for the first match at Sabina Park onSaturday and the Antigua Recreation Ground on May 2 were not involvedin the previous One-Day Series, the triangular Carlton Series inAustralia in January and February.Then captain Jimmy Adams, Sherwin Campbell, Daren Ganga, SylvesterJoseph, Mehendra Nagamootoo, Colin Stuart and Marlon Black have allbeen replaced as the selectors have stuck mainly to those used in thisseason’s Test series.Ricardo Powell, the hard-hitting Jamaican batsman, high-class fielderand One-Day specialist, and Kerry Jeremy, the 20-year-old Antiguanfast bowler, are the only two of the 14 who did not play in the Testsagainst South Africa.Jeremy’s inclusion is puzzling but completely justified.He was chosen for his first tour, to Australia, but played only onefirst-class match after he had his jaw broken in the opening match.He was then replaced for the Carlton Series for which, as a steadybowler and sharp fielder, he appeared well suited. They have now had achange of mind, presumably preparing him for the 2003 World Cup.Leon Garrick, the little Jamaican opener who made his debut in thefinal Test against South Africa, is the only one yet to play a One-DayInternational.Neil McGarrell, the Guyanese left-arm spinner, is recalled for theshorter game for the first time since the tour of South Africa twoyears ago when he played five matches.The squad: Carl Hooper (captain), Chris Gayle, Leon Garrick,Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Brian Lara, Ricardo Powell, Wavell Hinds,Marlon Samuels, Ridley Jacobs, Neil McGarrell, Mervyn Dillon, CameronCuffy, Kerry Jeremy,Nixon McLean.
