The Independent Voice of West Indies Cricket
West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo will play for Kent in the English Cricket Championship at the end of June, according to a CMC Sports report.
Bravo's manager Tim Nafziger announced the news late Friday after the 22-year-old right-hander signed the deal at his offices in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad & Tobago.
Malteenoes all-round Deon Ferrier is among three players without national senior team experience named in the Guyana squad to participate in the inaugural Stanford regional 20/20 cricket competition which begins on July 11 in Antigua.
GCC wicket-keeper Tyrell Tull, who last represented Guyana at the under-19 level in Jamaica in 2004, and Albion?s Imran Khan who last played at the regional under-19 level in 2000 in Guyana also gets their first chance at the senior national level.
Middle order batsmen Marlon Samuels and Runako Morton have been drafted into the West Indies squad for the third Test against India which starts in St Kitts on June 22.
Samuels, a talented Jamaican right-hander who has struggled to maintain a place in the senior side has been recalled to a largely unchanged middle order. Morton, somewhat unlucky to be dropped in the first place, is also in the squad.
Dear Mr. Gordon,
I write to convey my deep disappointment and concern that despite several public assurances on your part, and frequent reminders and enquiries from our side, the members of WIPA currently engaged in the Cricket series against India have yet to be issued with the relevant contracts.
Following the recent controversy over the catch West Indian fielder Daren Ganga on the edge of the boundary during the first India/WI Test, the ICC today clarified the protocol regarding situations where a boundary decision and a catch decision or a boundary decision and a run out are components of the same incident.
The ICC said it has issued this protocol to all members of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Umpires.
