Jamaica, July 16 -- Cricket West Indies (CWI) has announced the 16-member squad for the upcoming five-match T20 International (T20I) Series against Australia, to be played from July 20 to 28 at Sabina Park in Jamaica and Warner Park in St. Kitts.

According to a release from CWI, the squad features the core group of players who secured a recent series win against Ireland, along with exciting newcomers Jewel Andrew and Jediah Blades, earning maiden T20 call-ups.
