ST GEORGE’S, Grenada, (CMC) – ONE of Grenada’s emerging talents, Teddy Bishop has been chosen to lead the Windward Islands Volcanoes at the upcoming CG United Super50 Cup.
The Windward Islands Cricket Board named the 22-year-old Bishop, a top order batsman, as captain when it unveiled its 14-member squad earlier this week.
Bishop has played a solitary ODI for the West Indies and also represented the West Indies Under-19s.
He will have fellow countryman Johann Jeremiah as his vice-captain for the tournament, which bowls off in Trinidad on November 19.
A noticeable inclusion is Saint Lucia’s Kimani Melius, a former West Indies Under-19 captain who is making his return to List A cricket after a two-year absence.
The squad features a blend of experienced players and emerging talents who will be looking to carry the Volcanoes to their fifth title.
They will begin their campaign next Wednesday against the Leeward Islands Hurricanes at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy.
