Default Alas!! We won’t get this West Indies to play

I was looking at the West Indies Team playing the 1st test against Sri Lanka today. Apart from Shiv Chanderpaul, there is no player with adequate test playing experience.
The first XI is composed of 7 players with less than 10 test match experience including three debutants. Other 3 players have just 10 tests beside their name. 10 out of 11 players are almost inexperienced.

Test Experience of West Indian Players:
Shiv Chanderpaul= 86
Denesh Ramdin = Debut
Daren Powell = 10
Omari Banks = 8
Kerry Jeremy = Debut
Deighton Butler = Debut
Sylvester Joseph= 2
Narsingh Deonarine = 2
Dwayne Smith = 6
Tino Best = 10
Jermaine Lawson = 10

Alas!! We do not have any schedule to play West Indies this time!! We could have another test series win, if we had the luck to play with this West Indies.
