Former West Indies cricketer Daren Ganga called the West Indies’ pullout of the India series “very unfortunate” and called for a full investigation into the issues that brought about the abandonment of the tour.

Contacted yesterday by the Daily Express, Ganga said as a former West Indies opening batsman and West Indies Players Association executive member, any circumstance which involved players prematurely leaving a tour because of strike action is a huge deal.

“I am not in a position to apportion blame or point fingers at any side, but I think I would like to understand the rationale behind such a decision (the decision by the players to withdraw mid-tour),” Ganga said.
