Tue, Jul 2, '13

Former Jamaica and West Indies cricketing greats, Alf Valentine and Collie Smith, have been honoured for their contribution to the sport.

The upper eastern wing at Sabina Park was named the Alfred Valentine Wing, while the upper western wing was named the Collie Smith Wing, in tribute to the two late greats.

The tribute occurred during the Celkon Mobile Cup tri-nation one-day international match between West Indies and India at Sabina Park Sunday.

“It is a glowing honour for them,” declared president of the Jamaica Cricket Association (JCA), Lyndel Wright.
