Fallout in West Indies? Alzarri hits back at Sammy over 'declined selection' claim
Alzarri Joseph responded to head coach Daren Sammy's claim that Joseph 'declined selection' for the West Indies Test series against Pakistan.
Joseph said his decision was based on physical readiness concerns after returning from a year-long injury layoff due to a second stress fracture.
He stated his body was not prepared for another Test series after playing five back-to-back ODIs against New Zealand.
Joseph emphasized his commitment to representing West Indies professionally and said personal relationships do not impact his dedication.
