SARWAN EXCITED TO JOIN T&T RED FORCE

Trinidad & Tobago Newsday article.

Port of Spain, Trinidad - Former Guyana and West Indies captain Ramnaresh Sarwan has expressed excitement after being drafted by Trinidad and Tobago Red Force at the inaugural West Indies Cricket Board Professional Cricket League Draft Ceremony at Accra Beach Hotel, Barbados yesterday morning.

Sarwan will be wearing the Red Force colours for the very first time at the WICB Regional Four Day Tournament which bowls off on November 4th.

The Guyanese batsman, during an interview on the Sportsmax Zone yesterday, said he was delighted to be reunited with former coach Gus Logie, now in charge of the Red Force.

“I’m pretty excited, it’s a great opportunity,” Sarwan stated.

“I have always been well received in Trinidad, so representing Trinidad is a great privilege and honour. To have Gus Logie as the coach, who has coached me since I was fifteen, I know I would be very comfortable and I’m excited to be a part of team,” the right-hander continued.

He went on to speculate that the reason he was overlooked by Guyana at yesterday’s draft was because of ill-feeling towards him by a certain Guyanese official.

“I knew they were not going to pick me because there is a lot of feud. There is one individual who doesn’t really like me. Obviously I knew that was going to happen, I was prepared for it so it wasn’t a situation where I was surprised or anything like that,” he explained.

The 34-year-old said his main goal is to be healthy and fit and score big hundreds to get back in contention for the West Indies team.

“My main objective is to try and get myself fit to try and play in the 2015 World Cup,” he exclaimed. “The key for me is to try and get myself ready for the regional tournaments and I’ll make a very big statement there and then we would go from there.”

Sarwan acknowledged that with his experience, he will have to play a mentorship role to some of TT’s young batsmen and is looking forward to the role.

TT play their first game on November 11th against Barbados Franchise at the Queen’s Park Oval, Port-of-Spain.

I really hope Sars takes advantage of this lifeline as Leicester has dispensed with his services, he has failed for them and has not done anything of note for quite a few seasons now.

Although improbable, I still think a phenomenal season with Trinidad could get him back to the international fold for his swansong.

I wish him the best but sadly I think it is over for him but maybe the change of scenery would do him a world of good.

LanceKraigg’s time is up. He has never truly moved on as a player. Despite being captain and senior batsmen we will lose nothing with investing in a rookie.

He has given his service as an honest and wholehearted performer and would leave with my heartfelt thanks for his contribution.

His impressive performance was a significant factor in the team's success, and his dedication to the sport is truly admirable.
