Guyana coach gets the boot

After four consecutive losses this year to follow up the three in a row at the start of last year’s season and without a First-Class title in seven years, the new Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) executive has pulled the plug on Albert Smith’s duties as national cricket coach, according to a Kaieteur News report.

Carl Moore has kept his position as Manager.  Former Guyana middle order batsman Rabindranauth Seeram took over as the team’s Coach yesterday after former Test fast bowler Reon King, who served as Smith’s assistant during the last regional one-day tournament in Guyana was bypassed for the job. It is understood that the GCB could not afford the services of former Test off-spinner and West Indies coach Roger Harper.
