West Indies named a 14-man squad on Saturday for the two Twenty20 internationals against Australia.

Seamers Fidel Edwards and Krishmar Santokie, batting all-rounders Dwayne Smith and Nkrumah Bonner, as well as left-arm spinner Garey Mathurin were included, having all missed out on the ongoing one-day international series, which West Indies leads 2-1 ahead of Monday's (AEDT) final match.

"We have named a squad with a mixture of experience and youth and we believe they have the quality to defeat the Australians," West Indies chairman of selectors Clyde Butts said

The two matches are to be played in Saint Lucia on Wednesday (AEDT) and Barbados (Saturday).

West Indies squad: Darren Sammy (captain), Dwayne Bravo, Carlton Baugh, Nkrumah Bonner, Darren Bravo, Johnson Charles, Fidel Edwards, Garey Mathurin, Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Marlon Samuels, Krishmar Santokie, Dwayne Smith
