JOHN\u2019S, Antigua &#8211;<\/b>\u00a0Cricket West Indies (CWI) has expanded the number of West Indies Women\u2019s players offered retainer contracts for the 2021-2022 season to a record number of eighteen (18) players. This is an increase of three (3) retainer contracts compared to the 2020-21 season with contracts offered for the first time to developing young players Kaysia Schultz and Qiana Joseph. The three players will join the 15 retained players from the 2020-2021 season, including captain Stafanie Taylor, dynamic all-rounder Deandra Dottin and the leading T20 International (T20I) wicket-taker Anisa Mohammed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"richtext-image full-width\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cricviz-westindies-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/images\/bd810d81-4e71-440a-bd6f-23f36c88e95e.width-800.jpg?resize=800%2C510&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"West Indies Women - Practice Match vs India Women .jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"510\" \/>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This marks a continuation of CWI\u2019s investment into Women\u2019s and Girls cricket which aims to strengthen and widen the talent pool available, as well as encourage greater participation into the women\u2019s game.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CWI\u2019s Lead Selector for Women\u2019s and Girls cricket, Ann Browne-John said<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe last contract period did not see many international matches as we only played five (5) T20I matches against England. Despite this, the contracted players were able to keep themselves fit and match ready. It was therefore the fairest decision to return all fifteen (15) to contract.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"rich-text\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it is really a positive that three (3) new development contracts have been awarded for the upcoming year. This will allow the requisite focus to be placed on these young players as they continue to progress their careers. There has been a lack of left-arm orthodox bowlers in the region, therefore Joseph and Schultz will hopefully help fill this void; with Joseph also bringing her left-hand batting skills which is also limited in the region. Hector is one of the bright young fast bowlers who has been bowling with great aggression in the past few training camps.<\/p>\n<p>CWI\u2019s Director of Cricket Jimmy Adams said,<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI am delighted for all the players who have been awarded central contracts, especially those who are new to the contract list. We saw fit to expand the list of retained players by awarding additional development contracts to three young players who the selectors strongly recommended for inclusion.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"rich-text\">\n<p>The West Indies Women are currently in Antigua for their second high-performance camp of the year under newly appointed Head Coach Courtney Walsh.<\/p>\n<p>The evaluation period for the 2021-22 contracts covered performances and statistics from April 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021 (this was also supported by statistics from the previous 2019-2020 evaluation period). This allows for all players to be appraised immediately after the evaluation period and provides a notice period before new contracts on the July 1, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"richtext-image full-width\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cricviz-westindies-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/images\/c728a11f-c675-46af-a2e0-0e2a490aff70.width-800.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Women Practice Match 1 Group.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>West Indies Women\u2019s contracted players 2021-2022 Season:<\/p>\n<p>Aaliyah Alleyne, Shemaine Campbelle, Shamilia Connell, Deandra Dottin, Afy Fletcher, Cherry Ann Fraser, Shabika Gajnabi, Sheneta Grimmond, Shawnisha Hector, Chinelle Henry, Qiana Joseph*, Hayley Matthews, Anisa Mohammed, Chedean Nation, Karishma Ramharack, Kaysia Schultz*, Shakera Selman, Stafanie Taylor.<\/p>\n<p>*denotes players offered contracts for the first time in 2021-2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>ST.
