West Indies Masters unveil squad for 2025 O40s T20 World Cup in Pakistan
– Lawrence Farnum named Captain, Raj Singh takes on the role of Manager
Kaieteur Sports – Cricket West Indies Masters Association (CWIMA) has revealed its official lineup for the upcoming T20 World Cup, set to take place in Karachi, Pakistan, from November 17 to December 2, 2025.
Raj Singh in the Manager
This international tournament will showcase elite Master’s players from around the globe, individuals who exemplify the spirit, pride, and rich history of cricket. CWIMA is entering the competition with a well-rounded team comprised of experienced internationals, regional legends, and emerging Masters stars, all poised to represent the Caribbean with honour.
“This squad is remarkable, combining experience, leadership, and fervor,” stated Raj Singh, Chairman of CWIMA. “We are privileged to compete in Pakistan, a nation renowned for its passionate cricket culture and historic venues. Our players are ambassadors for the Caribbean and the enduring legacy of West Indies cricket.”
The selection of Pakistan as the host country underscores its robust cricketing infrastructure and deep-rooted love for the game. Anticipation for the event is high, promising to foster connections among Masters communities worldwide. Most matches will be broadcast live on television, featuring commentary from cricket experts. In the group stage, the West Indies will face off against host nation Pakistan, Canada, UAE, South Africa, and Hong Kong.
The squad is a strong mix of specialist T20 batsmen, versatile all-rounders, and adept bowlers suited for this format. Four players—Farnum, Amin, Maharaj, and Nagamootoo—previously toured Pakistan during the 2023 Global Cricket Cup, while much of the squad was selected from the WINDIES MASTERS EXTRAVAGANZA in Barbados last year and the ongoing 2025 BIG MAN CRICKET O40s T20 tournament in Guyana.
Lawrence Farnum is the Captain of the team.
“We boast a formidable unit that reflects the diversity of West Indies cricket, representing Guyana, Barbados, Trinidad, BVI, the UK, the US, and beyond,” Chairman Singh added. “These athletes serve as role models, demonstrating that a passion for cricket knows no age.”
CWIMA expresses its heartfelt gratitude to International Masters Cricket (IMC), Pakistan Veterans Cricket Association (PVCA), and all sponsors, partners, and supporters of Masters cricket for their unwavering dedication to the sport’s growth.
