Following West Indies victory in four days during the opening test against Pakistan at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy, the Barbadian players and members of staff will fly home to attend the funeral of Sir Garfield Sobers on Wednesday.

This was revealed by Prime Minister Mia Mottley, while speaking on the Mason and Guest Cricket Show.

West Indies completed a 90 run victory with a day to spare, which will allow the group to join the thousands of people from around the world at Kensington Oval, during the funeral.
