The West Indies 'A' cricket team represents Cricket West Indies and is considered its second-tier team in international cricket, below the top-level West Indies cricket team. The 'A' team is currently captained by wicketkeeper Joshua Da Silva in first-class cricket and coached by former Guyanese cricketer Rayon Griffith.[2]
Matches played by West Indies 'A' are not Tests or One Day Internationals, but they are usually first-class and List A games respectively. West Indies A had toured Nepal in late April 2024 for five T20 matches in which they won the series 3-2.[3]
