Tino Best, the Barbados fast bowler, has been called up to the West Indian squad for the seventh and final one-day international against England, which is to be played in Bridgetown on Wednesday (May 5).
Best, 22, impressed in the recent Test series, working up a good head of steam and taking 12 wickets, but he has not played in a one-day international before. He replaces another Barbadian, the allrounder Ryan Hinds, who hasn't appeared in an ODI since June 2002.
Best will join up with the rest of the squad when they fly in from St Lulcia today.
