The Red Force has acquired all-rounder, Narsingh Deonarine for the 2015/2016 West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Professional Cricket League season.
This was due to an agreement between the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board and Leeward Islands Cricket Association to swap the experienced Deonarine for Jamaican batsman Nkrumah Bonner who was drafted by the Red Force.
Deonarine became the top pick of the WICB Player Draft when selected by the Leeward Islands Hurricanes after declining a retainer contract by the Guyana Jaguars. The Guyanese all-rounder’s wife is Trinidadian and representing the Red Force allowed him to be with his family while competing at the regional level.
“I would like to thank the Leeward Islands Cricket Association for reaching an agreement which allows Narsingh to play for the Red Force and be with his family in Trinidad. Also I would like to commend Nkrumah on being receptive to the trade and we would like to wish him a successful season with the Hurricanes,” said Chief Executive Officer of the TTCB, Suruj Ragoonath.

Seems like Deo is a family man. Nutting wrong with that (and I not suggesting you find anything wrong with it either)
Kudos and best of luck to him. Good luck to Bonner as well

De man right to refuse Jaguars offer.. is only time before Griffith takes over everything and play his friends alone... he's already the selector, manager and assistant coach..
Plus no senior inter county tournament or trials gonna be held to select the Jaguars squad.. Sometime in de future they gonna start ah 8 team league.. god knows when they gonna get sponsors for that.. until then Griffith gonna pick his boys..

Leewards needs Deonarine's experience at this point. Leewards lose out on this one. They should have been a 2 for 1 swap.

Sorry VOR. You just can't get away from the dumping of them Yardies right on your front step.
Who will be next, Lambert?
