Shai Hope replaced Andre Russell in the West Indian squad for the three-match T20I series against India starting on Sunday at Eden Gardens Kolkata.
Russell, initially named only for the T20 leg of the India series, was ruled out of the three-match series after sustaining an injury in the Afghanistan Premier League.
West Indies chief selector Courtney Browne confirmed Russell's unavailability for the India series but did not give the details of his injury.
"Andre Russell and Sunil Narine are injured at this time. Ashley Nurse will miss both the remainder of the India tour and the Bangladesh tour as he recovers from his injury. We wish the team every success on a challenging assignment in India," Browne said in a statement.
Hope, who was part of both the Test and ODI squads and have been asked to stay back with the team for the T20 series. Hope scored 250 runs at an impressive average of 62.50 in the recently concluded ODI series which India won by 3-1.
Revised West Indies squad for T20s: Fabian Allen, Carlos Brathwaite – (Captain), Darren Bravo, Shimron Hetmyer, Shai Hope, Obed McCoy, Keemo Paul, Khary Pierre, Kieron Pollard, Nicholas Pooran, Rovman Powell, Denesh Ramdin, Sherfane Rutherford, Oshane Thomas
