(Reuters) - Left-arm spinner Nikita Miller will replace Sunil Narine in the West Indies squad for next month's World Cup, the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) said.

Off-spinner Narine, who was reported for a suspect action during the Champions League Twenty20 tournament in September, has withdrawn from the squad, saying he needed more time to bowl confidently with his remodelled action.
