"When will the BS [sic] stop?! I'm not surprised by my brother's non-selection, but with the recent changes in WI cricket management, I held onto a bit of hope for the better," Dwayne wrote in a post on Instagram. "This is NOT acceptable, and I just can't make sense of it! So here are my burning questions: What's the criteria for West Indies team selection? Surely, it can't be solely based on performance?"

After he was dropped last year, Haynes said he had asked him to look at his bowling footage in order to work on his shortcomings.

"Last season I was the first to go to Hayden when he lost his confidence and I suggested 'get a camera to look at you, where you are bowling'," Haynes said. "I thought at the time he was not bowling well and need some assistance from the outside just to have a look at him.

"This year I can tell you that I am very impressed with the way the ball was coming out of Hayden in this competition. We even made the suggestion to the West Indies Cricket Board to have Hayden in the 16 and he is going to be in Antigua for the camp."

"We were very impressed with Hayden," Haynes said. "He used to be a two-dimensional player. He batted very well for Leeward Islands, came in at some crucial times and gave Leeward Islands a really good partnership and get them some good runs. We were very impressed with his batting as well.

"Hayden was very close to selection, and I am happy he has got back his form. He is bowling well and is always going to be in our plans."
