Steve McLaren, who took over the Reggae Boyz last year, has named a young squad for the tournament, his first return to West London as a head coach since being sacked by Queens Park Rangers in 2019.

Everton's Mason Holgate, who spent this season on loan at West Bromwich Albion, returns to the squad, and he features alongside Charlton Athletic's Kaheim Dixon and Burton Albion forward Rumarn Burrell, named in a senior Jamaica squad for the first time.
McLaren had hoped that West Ham's Michail Antonio could make the squad after he broke his leg in December, but he will not be risked.
Trinidad's squad, headed up by Aston Villa and Man United great Dwight Yorke, features Stevenage midfielder Daniel Phillips, and St Johnstone's Andre Raymond.
It will be the 41st meeting between the two sides and the third this year, with Jamaica recording a 1-0 win and a 1-1 draw in the earlier fixtures.

Inglis makes way as Aussie star returns for second Test
Steve Smith will complete a remarkable return to Test cricket, just 20 days after suffering a nasty compound dislocation of his finger. The star batter will bat at No.4 in Australia's second Test against the West Indies, starting at Friday midnight AEST, in Grenada. Australia captain Pat Cummins confirmed Smith would replace Josh Inglis, who played two poor shots to get out in the first Test win last week. "He's ready to go, the finger held up well," Cummins told reporters in Grenada on Wednesday. "He was really happy, particularly batting. "Fielding we still potentially need to manage it a little bit, so he might not be in the slips too often. "Maybe for spin he'll be OK, but (for the) quicks he might need to wait another week." Smith couldn't take any further part in the World Test Championship final at Lord's after being forced to hospital following a nasty incident in the field on day three. But Smith avoided surgery - instead wearing a splint on his right little finger while it heals - allowing him to play sooner than initially thought. The 36-year-old spent time at his second home in New York after the WTC defeat in London, before flying to join his teammates in the Caribbean. Australia have never played a Test at St George's, and only once previously visited for an ODI back in 2008. Australia will retain the Frank Worrell Trophy, which they have held since 1995, if they back up their 159-run win in the first Test. Star quick Shamar Joseph caused Australia dramas in Bridgetown by taking nine wickets, backing up his match-winning heroics from the Gabba in January 2024. The hosts will be desperate to celebrate veteran opener Kraigg Brathwaite, who becomes the 10th West Indian to play 100 Tests. "He's a modern-day legend and someone I look up to – I've played with him from under-11s," West Indies captain Roston Chase said. "He stated before starting his career that he wanted to play 100 Tests so that's an amazing achievement that someone can set a goal from so early and achieve it after so many years." Australia: Usman Khawaja, Sam Konstas, Cameron Green, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Beau Webster, Alex Carey, Pat Cummins (capt), Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Josh Hazlewood.

Teammate facing the axe as Steve Smith takes big step towards playing second Test
Steve Smith is set to make a comeback into the men's national side for the second Test against the West Indies having made a shock appearance in a New York batting cage with Josh Inglis set to make way. Smith suffered a compound dislocation in his side's World Test Championship final defeat to South Africa and sat out the first victory against the West Indies in Barbados. While he was expected to be out of action for a little longer as he recovered from the ugly injury, Smith admitted an impromptu batting session in New York convinced him he was ready to go. Although he still needs to convince the coaching staff. 'Underneath this bridge there was a batting cage,' Smith said having flown from New York to Barbados to join the team. 'It was ideal because it was pretty warm, like 36C … so it was good to be in the shade. My mate actually told me about it, and he was able to throw me a few balls there. 'I had a couple of bats last week with some tennis balls and incredi-balls the first day and then some cricket balls the next day. Everything felt good; it was with a slightly bigger splint than this one as well, so it was probably a little bit trickier getting my hand in the glove. 'But I just got my stitches out and I've got a smaller splint on now, so it'll be easier getting my hand in the glove.' The move has surprised fans with Smith linking up with his teammates and is set to return as Australia look to wrap-up the series with another victory. However, Smith's comeback likely spells the end of Inglis' short return to the team. Inglis had an opportunity to score some runs in the first Test, but like most of the batting line-up struggled at the crease. Smith will most likely slot right back into his No.4 position, where Inglis filled-in, in the second Test. But Inglis wasn't the only one struggling for runs. Opener Sam Konstas struggled on his return to the XI, but has been backed to remain in the side. All eyes were on Konstas and Cameron Green having taken over the opening role and No.3 position for the West Indies tour with plenty expected of them after their WTC final struggles. And both looked lost against the West Indies quicks with Konstas in particularly struggling. But coach Andrew McDonald claimed the opener will be given time to prove himself in the three Test matches with the Ashes approaching. "We've had some conversations around, 'potentially if you're in that situation again, what does that look like?' and that's what experience is," McDonald told reporters in Barbados. "It's learning from previous events and trying to implement a way through that. It felt like he was stuck at times and he was over-aggressive and then (he) underplayed. It's really that balance and tempo ... that's a step up to Test cricket. "He's got a really good partner down the other end (Usman Khawaja). That, over time, I think, will play out. That's all we ask for - a bit of patience and time with a young player coming into Test cricket." Konstas' front-pad was exposed in the first Test against the West Indies and coach McDonald claimed the batter is aware of where he needs to improve. "He knows his deficiencies," McDonald said. "But, from a batting perspective, I encourage all players to learn to play with their deficiencies. I don't think there's such a thing as a perfect technique. If that's what you're looking for then I think you're looking in the wrong place."
