With a 3-1 deficit to make up and three matches remaining, the West Indies have rung the changes for the fifth one-day international against South Africa in Bridgetown on Wednesday.

Leon Garrick, Nixon McLean and Wavell Hinds have all been cut from the 14-man West Indian squad with opening bat Daren Ganga, leg-spinner Dinanath Ramnarine and Barbadian Corey Collymore all winning call-ups.

If Collymore plays in one of the three remaining games in the series, he will become the first Bajan to have played against the South African in either the Tests or the one-dayers during their 2001 tour, an extraordinary and embarrassing state of affairs for Barbados given the island's history and contribution to West Indies cricket.

In the South African camp, all-rounder Lance Klusener seems certain to miss Wednesday's match and might well be out of the remainder of the series with a groin strain that forced him off the field during the fourth ODI in Grenada on Sunday.
