Kieran Powell, the left-handed opening batsman, has been dropped from the West Indian team for the fourth One-day International against Australia – which will be played at Beausejour Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia on Friday, March 23, 2012.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AB-Barath-c886, the 21-year-old cricketer, replaces Powell in the West Indian team. The right-hander has proved his fitness during domestic competitions in the West Indies and his innings of 114 runs against Guyana has paved the way for his selection.

Barath last played for the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 in 2011. There were high expectations from the right-hander but so far he has been a big disappointment. He played in two ODI games scaling just 17 runs.  
Powell, who was given an another opportunity to play for the West Indies as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 in the first three ODI’s. The left-handed batsman failed to provide the West Indies with good starts and

13 Tino Best
Australia ODI squad: 1 http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Peter-Nevill-c2180, 13 James
