Emrit confirmed to lead Red Force

Mon, Nov 10, '14

Rayad Emrit will captain the Trinidad and Tobago Red Force team for the duration of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Professional Cricket League (PCL) four-day competition.
This after the T&T Cricket Board (TTCB) executive approved the recommendation from the national selectors to replace regular skipper Denesh Ramdin with Emrit and to appoint middle order batsman Jason Mohammed as vice-captain.
The wicket-keeper batsman, Ramdin, took over the T&T captaincy from Daren Ganga in 2011 and was appointed West Indies Test captain earlier this year, replacing Darren Sammy.
Emrit led the T&T in the 2014 season earlier this year when the Red Force finished runners-up to Barbados in the four-day competition.
The TTCB executive met over the weekend and finally resolved the T&T captaincy controversy which erupted when Ramdin said he was being victimized after he was axed at T&T captain during a meeting with the TTCB last Monday.
