Sammy puts faith in new-look West Indies team COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (AP) — West Indies captain Darren Sammy is backing his new-look side to challenge a confident home team during its six-week tour of Sri Lanka. Sammy vowed on Tuesday to bring in “energy, passion and performance” to the West Indies, which has never won a test or one-day series in Sri Lanka. “This is a very important series for us as a team,” Sammy said. “We have not been doing that well in recent years but we are a committed team and we are looking to do well in this series. Sri Lanka play very well at home but we are not daunted. We have the confidence that we can come here and win. “For us in the West Indies, cricket is more than a game. We are going to bring back the passion and the pride and also perform to take the West Indies back up the ladder.” The 26-year-old allrounder took over the captaincy from veteran Chris Gayle last month despite having just eight test
matches under his belt. Gayle and vice captain Dwayne Bravo and Kieon Pollard refused to sign central contracts so they’d be available for lucrative Twenty20 games. Gayle and Bravo lost their leadership roles but were still picked for the tour. Pollard wasn’t. Ramnaresh Sarwan, who played the last of his 83 tests in December, was overlooked again for fitness reasons. Denesh Ramdin and Jerome Taylor were also not offered retainer contracts. That opened the way for left-hander Darren Bravo, allrounder Andre Russell and wicketkeeper Devon Thomas, the squad’s only uncapped player, who turns 21 on Friday. Bravo and Russell made their ODI debuts in 2008. Carlton Baugh, who last played a test in 2004, will vie with Thomas for the keeper’s job. Also recalled are openers Devon Smith, who played his most recent test in May 2009, and Adrian Barath, who made a century on debut against Australia in Brisbane last year,

but was sidelined by a knee injury in April. “The selectors have come up with the best team to represent the Caribbean side and I am very confident in all the players I have here,” Sammy said. Sri Lanka is fresh from registering its first ever limited-overs series victory in Australia. Captain Kumar Sangakkara said he expected a tough contest from the tourists. “West Indies have always been a very competitive side ... the challenge is still the same to go out there and win test matches,” he said. “We expect nothing less but the best from them.” West Indies starts with a three-day warmup game on Wednesday in Colombo, followed by three tests, five one-dayers, and a Twenty20.
