Lambert back as Four-Day skipper

MIDDLE-order batsman Tamar Lambert was yesterday reappointed captain of Jamaica's 13-man squad to face Guyana in the opening game of the Regional Four-Day tournament set to bowl off at Sabina Park on Friday.

The 32-year-old, who displayed good all-round performances in the recently concluded NAGICO Super50-Over tournament, was overlooked for the top leadership role, which was given to David Bernard Jr, after West Indies opening batsman Chris Gayle was ruled out with an injury. Lambert has led Jamaica to five Regional Four-Day titles from 2007-2008 to 2011-2012, when Barbados broke the streak last season.
