several other top regional players from St Lucia


1.The above statement needs to be looked at.
It implies that Darren Sammy,Johnson Charles and Kimani Melliue are "top regional players"
Fair enough, even though some may quibble at that.
However who are the "other" top regional players from St. Lucia?


Ackeem Auguste, Zayee Antoine, Caleb Thomas, Stephen Abraham, Keddy Lesporis, Jamaal James, Jonnel Eugene, Jaden Elibox, Keygan Arnold, Audy Alexander, Dalton Polius, Larry Edward, Tarryck Gabriel and Garvin Serieux are among the players confirmed for participation.


Are these the"other top regional players from St. Lucia"??

It is called marketing 101 Bro. We gotta hype this up! Just saying.

Kudos on he St.Lucian Cricket association for organizing this. Windwards and Leewards cricket boards need to get together and host some T20 tournaments to help fund 4 day cricket.
