The BCCI has announced the India's women's team squads for the upcoming white-ball series against the West Indies on Friday, December 13. India's selection committee has made several changes to the ODI and T20I squads following of the team's recent poor performance against Australia. The series, which will feature three T20Is and as many ODIs, will start from December 15.
