Cricket West Indies on Wednesday named Shai Hope and Rovman Powell as West Indies' ODI and T20I captains respectively. West Indies Cricket confirmed that Hope and Powell will take over from Nicholas Pooran as captains of the Men's ODI and T20I teams for the upcoming tour of South Africa and beyond.
Pooran stepped down as skipper in both white-ball formats after the West Indies' early exit at November's ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
Shai Hope will replace him as the captain of the One Day International team, with a Cricket World Cup on the horizon later this year if West Indies are able to qualify.
Meanwhile, Rovman Powell, who led them in New Zealand last year in a T20I for the first time, will take charge of the T20I side.
