West Indies all-rounder Deandra Dottin will return to international cricket two years after retiring from the national team, according to Cricket West Indies (CWI).
The 33-year-old, who is the second-highest run scorer for West Indies in women’s limited-overs cricket, trailing only Staphanie Taylor, has rejoined the 2016 champions in preparation for the Women’s T20 World Cup in October in Bangladesh.
Dottin initially retired in July 2022 after a 14-year international career but continued to play in franchise leagues. She decided to return to the West Indies team following discussions with CWI, including talks with the governing body’s president, Kishore Shallow.
“I am eager to return to the game that I love and contribute my utmost to the West Indies women’s team across all formats, with immediate effect,” Dottin wrote in a letter shared by CWI.
