West Indies will host England for a five-match T20I series scheduled to start on Saturday, January 22. All the matches will be played at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados.
The Caribbean side will be led by Kieron Pollard who returns to the squad after missing the Pakistan tour due to a hamstring injury.
Meanwhile, West Indies have added former skipper Jason Holder to the limited-overs set-up but decided to drop their star all-rounder Andre Russell.
The likes of Evin Lewis and Anderson Phillip have also been ruled out after testing COVID-19 positive.
On the other hand, England have announced a strong 16-man squad led by skipper Eoin Morgan.
The visitors will be without their regular head coach Chris Silverwood. In his absence, former England captain Paul Collingwood has been named head coach while ex-opener Marcus Trescothick will be their assistant coach.
England have summoned left-arm seamer David Payne for his maiden call-up to the national T20I squad for the West Indies series.
