Edwards will replace Jason Bennett, an emerging fast bowler, in the Barbados squad, after they completed a much-needed win against the Windward Islands. Edwards, who made a grandstand debut in 2003 taking five Sri Lankan wickets, has represented the West Indies in 15 Tests, taking 39 wickets.

Barbados, the defending champions, are currently at the bottom of the table with 16 points.
