WI vs PAK: Bishop gets maiden West Indies call-up for Pakistan Test series, McKenzie recalled

West Indies gave left-arm spinner Joshua Bishop ​his maiden call-up and recalled ‌Kirk McKenzie for the ​two-Test home series against ⁠Pakistan beginning on Saturday.

Bishop has been the most successful bowler ‌across the past three West Indies Championship seasons, ‌which put the 26-year-old ‌in ⁠line for his Test ⁠debut.

McKenzie, who played the last of his six Tests in 2024, ​was recalled ‌in the 15-member squad after opener John Campbell was ruled out with a left ‌hamstring strain.

Fast bowler Alzarri ​Joseph was unavailable for selection due to personal ⁠reasons, Cricket West Indies said in a statement on ‌Thursday.

The first Test will be played in Tarouba and the second one is scheduled in Port of Spain from August 2.

West Indies ‌squad:

Roston Chase (captain), Jomel Warrican, Joshua Bishop, Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Joshua Da Silva, Justin Greaves, Kavem Hodge, Shai Hope, Amir Jangoo, Shamar Joseph, Brandon King, Kirk McKenzie, Keemo Paul, Kemar Roach, Jayden Seales
