ST. JOHN’S, Antigua – Cricket West Indies (CWI) today expresses immense pride and congratulations to Sir Clive Lloyd following the historic naming of a stand in his honour at Old Trafford Cricket Ground by Lancashire County Cricket Club.

 
The re-naming ceremony, held on Wednesday 23 July ahead of the start of the fourth Test match between England and India, also honoured former Lancashire and India wicket-keeper Farokh Engineer, Sir Clive’s teammate during the 1970s, in recognition of both players’ exceptional service to the club and international cricket.

 
The stand next to the club's media centre, known as the B Stand, will now bear Lloyd’s name on its upper tier and Engineer’s on the lower tier.

 
“Sir Clive Lloyd exemplifies the very best of West Indies cricket – excellence, leadership, and an unwavering commitment to the highest standards,” said CWI Chief Executive Officer Chris Dehring.

Great news to know that his contribution has been recognised. As a youngster, I read hungrily the county cricket scores esp Warwickshire with Kanhai and Kalli (and Gibbs I believe), Lancs with Lloyd, Nottingham with Sobers, Glamorgan with Bryan Davis and Kent with John Sheperd
