Kashyap and Bist figured in the T20I squad named by the women’s selection committee, while there were no Shafali Verma and Arundhati Reddy in either side. In the ODI squad, slow left-arm bowler Tanuja Kanwer was inducted in place of Radha Yadav, while off-spinner-cum-right-hand batter Rawal too found a place.

Yastika Bhatia, Shreyanka Patil and Priya Punia are all injured and hence were not considered for selection.

India will begin their campaign against the Caribbean side with three T20Is at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on December 15, 17 and 19, which will be followed bythe ODIs in Vadodara on December 22, 24 and 27.

India, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, will be without out-of-form Verma, who was also not in the squad for the recent three-match ODI series against Australia. India lost the series 0-3.

Uttarakhand all-rounder Bist was named in the T20 squad after her strong performance for the touring India A against Australia A recently, where she struck three half-centuries in one-dayers.

Both the awards, in the name of legendary Balbir Singh Sr, carry a cash prize of Rs 25 lakh each.
