West Indies led by Kraigg Brathwaitte welcome back experienced pacer Kemar Roach in to the squad as vice captain Alzarri Joseph was rested to manage work load. Kevin Sinclair also missed out from retaining his spot from the England tour as the spinner continues his recovery from an injury.

The home side have named a squad which is very similar to the one that played in England in the recent Test series with Keacy Carty and the uncapped Bryan Charles the only players without a Test cap.

The visitors led by Temba Bavuma have named a strong squad, featuring the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Aiden Markram and Tristan Stubbs among other Test playing regulars. Gerald Coetzee, who was named in the squad, was ruled out and Migael Pretorius was named his replacement.
