The first class cricket career of former Test wicket keeper Junior Murray might have come to a premature end -- with Windward Island cricket selectors not giving him the honored exit they promised.
Murray did not fly to Dominica with the Windward Islands team to play Barbados Saturday after the selectors apparently took a late decision to omit him from the team without discussing it with the captain, manager or coach.

Twenty years ago, when Junior Murray made his first class debut for the Windward Islands, he was a promising wicket-keeper. His selection to the West Indies team for the Australian tour of 1992/3 was a tangible sign of that promise bearing fruit.
He made his debut in the third Test in Sydney and did not particularly distinguish himself. In the fourth Test played in Adelaide, which the West Indies won by one run, he made 49 not out in the first innings and took the catch that clinched the victory.

The performance of the Guyana team in the current Carib Beer and KFC Cup regional competitions has left many questions unanswered, not the least in relation to the selection of the team.
While both of Guyana’s four-day Carib Beer games against the Windward Islands and Trinidad and Tobago were severely affected by rain, they have now lost their first two one-day KFC Cup matches to these same teams very tamely.
