Ronsford and Marlon..
Good move Beaton.. hopefully Shepherd could do the same.. The Guyana selectors woulda pick Barnwell ahead of both of dem..

Good pick Beaton. Samuels not so sure. Beaton , Tonge, Joseph and Cornwall are good attacking options.
Experienced West Indies batsman, Marlon Samuels, will be joining the Leeward Islands Hurricanes for the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Super50 competition scheduled to start later this month.
This was revealed by Chief Operations Officer (COO) of the Leeward Islands Cricket Board (LICB), Vernon Springer, who also named two other regional players set to join the sub-regional franchise ahead of a preparatory camp here at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground starting January 9.
We have 20 guys who will be here over the next couple of days or over the next two weeks and we are going to have some trial games. We promised you we are going to have the best franchise and whatever it takes, we are going to make sure it works, he said.
The other big name for you is Ronsford Beaton the Guyanese fast bowler who is also going to be part of our 20-man squad, and from last year we would have had Daron Cruickshank who is also coming back into the One Day squad, he added.
Antiguan all-rounder, Orlando Peters, has also been included in the training squad.
This means marlon samuels will be selected to play in the upcoming odi series.
In reply to sunfish
Guyana did not get the memo as Beaton was included in the list of players selected to practice for the Guyana squad and published in today's papers. Unless he will play for both teams.

Looks like the authorities have it in for you, VOR.
How much can one man suffer!
This ability to transfer between franchises is a good initiative by WICB.
In reply to bobby
He's not a contracted player.. so he could play for all the teams.. once they pick him..

Contrary to popular belief the Leewards are a welcoming people so we embrace the Yard migration to greener pastures...The Worldboss now Helegance... Does anybody want to play for Jamaica?

This team looking good on paper:
Kieran Powell
Montcin Hodge
Marlon Samuels ---Might as well make use of the castoff. Must bat at 3.
Chesney Hughes
Bonner
Hamilton
Orlando Peters
Cornwall
Tonge
Beaton
Joseph
Maybe we can bring in a slow bowler ahead of one of the pacers.
In reply to voiceofreason
Good good team, and if Chesney no come good, Crusihank come een for him.
We got a good squad on paper man. Seeing that them man training from early should gel well when the competition starts.

JA has cricketer factory, we farm out experienced players to other islands while developing younger ones! Happy New Year everyone!
In reply to Slipfeeler
Can Marlon and Bonner play together, it will be interesting.
I am a Windward Islander but I think Leewards will make interesting viewing this season.
I will back any emerging player regardless of origin. I am watching Hamilton closely but he needs to continue with his good form.
In reply to openning
I really don't anticipate any problems with them playing together as they are both professionals and experienced players.
In reply to Slipfeeler
Is Samuel a professional, have you ever played on the same team as him?
I will not post or expose someone , who knew him and played with him for a number of years.
In reply to openning
Time has changed, players are now unfortunately trying to secure their own livelihood, therefore more concerned about contractual obligations now to feed their family and less concerned about offending or been offended by other players.
In reply to openning
Never heard of any bad blood between those two. Marlon and Killa, yes.
The question of them playing together on the same team has more to do with the fact that they offer the same (or comparable) services.

Allyuh Yardies best be on your best behavior. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
