Both Rampersad and Telfer were part of the squad that played in a 3-0 defeat against Bolivia on March 15. Rampersad was named captain for the match.
The Trinidad and Tobago men's national team is led by interim head coach Derek King, who was an assistant coach for the Wanderers during the 2019 season.
Since making his international debut in 2023, Rampersad has become a key player for his national team, earning 31 caps for his country. He scored his first international goal during the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Telfer has scored 10 goals in 36 appearances for Trinidad and Tobago since making his debut in 2019.
