Three West Indies players have decided not to head out to England for the following month's Test arrangement as a result of coronavirus fears.

The opening Test will at that point start on 8 July at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton, trailed by two Tests at Old Trafford, beginning on 6 July and 24 July.

Cricket West Indies (CWI) said players will be tested for coronavirus this week and are planned to travel to the UK on private flights on 8 June.

They have named an underlying 14-man crew, in addition to 11 extras that will be trained with the crew and be accessible as substitutions if necessary.

Details about West Indies Squad

West Indies crew in full: Jason Holder (chief), Jermaine Blackwood, Nkrumah Bonner, Kraigg Brathwaite, Shamarh Brooks, John Campbell, Roston Chase, Rahkeem Cornwall, Shane Dowrich, Chemar Holder, Shai Hope, Alzarri Joseph, Raymon Reifer, Kemar Roach

Additional players: Sunil Ambris, Joshua da Silva, Shannon Gabriel, Keon Harding, Kyle Mayers, Preston McSween, Marquina Mindley, Shane Moseley, Anderson Phillip, Oshane Thomas, Jomel Warrican.

Uncapped batsman Nkrumah Bonner, 31, and quick bowler Chemar Holder, 22, are named 
for the crew, while bowler Shannon Gabriel is on the save list as he comes back to wellness following a lower leg activity a year ago.

West Indies players and staff are accepting a half decrease in salary as a major aspect of CWI's reaction to the coronavirus pandemic.

West Indies are nearly setting out on an exceptional excursion - loaded with difficulties and questions, the vast majority of them outside the field of play.

However, it is a risk worth taking, feels Johnny Grave, the Cricket West Indies (CWI) CEO. 

Grave, who has been occupied with arranging the hazard appraisal with his partners at the ECB in recent weeks, is idealistic West Indies will fly around June 8 for the three-Test arrangement, which is probably going to start on July 8.
