Roston Chase has been appointed as the new Test captain of the West Indies cricket team. He took over the reins in mid-May, subsequent to Kraigg Brathwaite having resigned. Chase’s initial assignment as captain will be a three-match home series against Australia from June to July.
He has not played any game since March 2023, which means it’s been more than two years since he appeared in a Test match. Since making his debut in July 2016, Chase has appeared in 49 Tests, making well over 2,000 runs, including five centuries and 11 fifties. With his off-spin bowling, he has also scalped 85 wickets.

Currently, Chase is in Ireland with the West Indies for a three-match ODI series against the hosts. After that, there will be another three-match ODI series against England to follow later this month. As Test captain, Chase will lead the West Indies against Australia in the upcoming series, with the first Test running from June 25 to June 29 in Bridgetown. This series will also serve as the kick-off for the West Indies’ 2025-27 World Test Championship campaign.
