The Guyana Amazon Warriors Camp camp commences with a morning fitness assessment session
from 10:00hrs and ‘nets’ in their afternoon from noon at the Providence Stadium.
The players will be engaged in Gym work at the Fitness 53 which is owned by Sarwan
who will soon depart for Trinidad to represent TnT Knight Riders this year.

Is this where his international average ended up?
Sad waste of a talent.
Happy birthday and much joy and fulfillment in life after Cricket.

Re: Sarwan at 36 - ketchim - 06-24-2016
I wish Bobby could pull a last minute swap:
Emrit back to TnT for Sarwan back to Warriors
Re: Sarwan at 36 - Googley - 06-24-2016
Sars and coach Roger doan get along! Roger threw Sars under the bus after the very first CPL final!

The WICB treated Gayle nor Sars well, as you recall, but Ramnaresh did not have the strength of character to come back and messed up his chances at Leicester and I think they also made him Captain.
Makes one think what the WICB did was correct as he lacked the fitness, they claimed and he successfully sued, which also curtailed his involvement at Leicester.
He lacked the hunger and commitment to carry on as age wise he, in theory, could have had a few more years.
At his best, a spectacular batsman.
Re: Sarwan at 36 - Mail - 06-24-2016
Seems Sars do not get along with those that matter and may be a reflection of either being unwilling or unable to manage relationships. Either way his decline started well before he gave up with his once very good average continually dropping.
One gets the feeling, if managed better, Windies and their fans could have benefitted.
