Dillon demands more for Guyana clash
TT Red Force coach Mervyn Dillon may be pleased with his batsmen at the moment but he is expecting much more consistency from them if they're to win the West Indies Championship this season. Following a lopsided innings and 168-run win over Leeward Islands Hurricanes on Sunday at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy, Tarouba, Dillon said composure will be the key to this campaign which shifts away to Guyana next. TT started the tournament with a draw against Jamaica Scorpions and this win in their first two games at home.
"One of the things I always stressed on, is the guys putting a high price on their wicket. Even with the runs we're scoring, I still thought Jason and a couple others gave away their hand. That is how hard I am going to be," Dillon said.
He said converting into hundreds remains the expected standard and laid the challenge for batsmen to remain not out. "That is what I ask of the guys, whoever is in there stays in and gets the job done."

Guyana is the gold standard of regional 4-day cricket. Every team approaches their games against Guyana like a meeting with the Devil.
That's the result of licks year after year, for 5 straight years. People don't forget all that licks so easily. Just ask some of those despicable posters who show up here from time to time!
