Fabian Allen, Nicholas Pooran and Oshane Thomas have been handed central contracts by the West Indies Cricket for 2019-20 season. Pooran, Allen and Thomas were all part of the World Cup squad where West Indies finished at the ninth spot.
The CWI contracts for male cricketers are divided into all-format, red-ball and white-ball contracts. Opening batsman John Campbell, who made his Test debut against England earlier this year, has also been handed his first contract in the red-ball category.
The number of all-format contracts on the men's side has now increased from four to seven with Darren Bravo, Shimron Hetmyer and Keemo Paul joining those in the Test and ODI formats.
"We believe the 2019-20 contract list provides us with a multi-talented group of players who can represent West Indies across all formats over the contract period," said Robert Haynes, interim chairman of the CWI Selection Panel.
"We believe the mix of players selected are important for the development of our teams going forward and we have looked to award contracts to players who have shown commitment and performance during the past year," he added.
