New Zealand-based batsmen Ian Billcliff and Geoff Barnett are two of the notable inclusions in Canada's 15-man squad for the World Cup announced on Wednesday.
The Canadians kept 13 of their 15-man squad that competed in the World Cricket League tournament in Kenya recently, opting to drop all-rounders Don Maxwell and Sandeep Jyoti. Ever blossoming batsman Ashish Bagai - player of the series for the World Cricket League - will vice-captain the team while Jon Davison retains his roles as skipper. Canadian coach Andy Pick told Cricinfo; "it is a fairly well balanced squad. I am deeply sorry for Don Maxwell. The makeup of the squad was likely to dictate that two players who were in Kenya would miss out. I believe this is a reflection on the strength of Canadian cricket that there are 17 or 18 players who could expect to be very close to the squad." Canada face a tough time in this, their third World Cup. Sharing a pool with Kenya, England and New Zealand won't be easy. Canada team : John Davison (captain), Ashish Bagai, Ian Billcliff, Geoff Barnett, Kevin Sandher, Umar Bhatti, Desmond Chumney, George Codrington, Austin Codrington, Andy Cummins, Sunil Dhaniram, Asif Mulla, Henry Osinde, Abdool Samad, Qaiser Ali.
