The Bar­ba­dos Pride will have the ser­vices of West In­dies all-rounder Ros­ton Chase when they face de­fend­ing cham­pi­ons Trinidad & To­ba­go Red Force in the first semi­fi­nal of the Re­gion­al Su­per50 at the Bri­an Lara Crick­et Acad­e­my in Tarou­ba on Wednes­day.

Chase was pre­vi­ous­ly un­avail­able, as he was part of the West In­dies squad that played Eng­land in the just con­clud­ed One Day In­ter­na­tion­al and T20I se­ries which end­ed on Sun­day.

While Chase’s ad­di­tion will be wel­comed, Bar­ba­dos will be with­out their cap­tain Kyle May­ers as well as Kadeem Clarke, who have been grant­ed leave to take part in the up­com­ing Abu Dhabi T10 tour­na­ment.

As a re­sult, Shi­an Brath­waite has been added to the squad, while Ray­mon Reifer will serve as cap­tain for the rest of the tour­na­ment.

“The na­tion­al se­lec­tion pan­el has con­firmed that Ros­ton Chase and Shi­an Brath­waite will join the Bar­ba­dos Pride squad as re­place­ment play­ers for Kadeem Al­leyne and Kyle May­ers re­spec­tive­ly,” the Bar­ba­dos Crick­et As­so­ci­a­tion stat­ed in a press re­lease is­sued on Mon­day.

“Both Al­leyne and May­ers were grant­ed NOCs to par­tic­i­pate in the up­com­ing Abu Dhabi T10 tour­na­ment sched­uled from No­vem­ber 21 to De­cem­ber 3, 2024.

“Ray­mon Reifer has been ap­point­ed cap­tain for the re­main­der of the CG Unit­ed CWI Re­gion­al Su­per50 tour­na­ment that is be­ing held in Trinidad & To­ba­go,” the re­lease fur­ther added.

The Pride will be hop­ing to ex­act re­venge on the Red Force, who whipped them by nine wick­ets in their top-of-the-ta­ble clash on Sat­ur­day.
