England on Sunday retained six players from the World Cup squad, including skipper Jos Buttler, for the limited-overs tour of the West Indies beginning December 3. Defending champions England failed to qualify for the World Cup semifinals in India, having won only three of their nine league games. Their final win came against Pakistan in Kolkata on Saturday night. Ben Stokes, who had come out of ODI retirement to play in the World Cup, is also not part of the ODI and T20I squads for the West Indies series. Stokes is expected to undergo a knee surgery following his arrival in England from India.
