Roach included in Board President's XI squad - dillinger10 - 07-12-2016
Quote: Fast bowler Kemar Roach has been included in the West Indies Cricket Board President's XI squad to face the Indians in a three-day warm-up match starting July 14 in Basseterre. Roach, who has played 37 Tests, was dropped from the Test squad for the India series, after a poor tour to Australia last December.
In six other changes to the 13-member squad, John Campbell, Rahkeem Cornwall, Jahmar Hamilton, Montcin Hodge, Chemar Holder and Gudakesh Motie were included for Rajendra Chandrika, Roston Chase and Shane Dowrich, all of whom were selected in the Test squad to face India, along with Damion Jacobs, Marquino Mindley and Jomel Warrican, who was also dropped from the Test squad.
West Indies Board President's XI squad: Leon Johnson (capt), Jermaine Blackwood, John Campbell, Rahkeem Cornwall, Jason Dawes, Jahmar Hamilton, Montcin Hodge, Chemar Holder, Shai Hope, Keon Joseph, Gudakesh Motie, Kemar Roach, Vishaul Singh

It really is a shame that the shoulder injury has derailed Kemar's career. He has never been the same since. Young Chemar Holder, a member of the Under-19 World Cup winning squad is included, but still no Alzarri Joseph.

Kemar, injury aside though terribly pertinent, has been overworked and took lead in the attack not long after he debuted as Taylor floundered.
He certainly looked a spent force the last time I saw him but the Windies would have been better off with a fully fit Roach.
If Joseph is playing CPL, those responsible should be guiding him to the correct avenues to hone his skills and play at the highest level tets...
I was more impressed with him than anyone in the U19 teams and more hopeful for him than Holder who has not developed a s a bowler at all.
Most expected Holder to increase pace thus utilising his height but this has not happened.

Holder, Chemar may be a dark horse.
I have not seen Alzarri play in any CPL matches (like Hetmeyer) !
