Barbados & Guyana will be the teams to look out for. Not sure of Jamaica this time. Could have been stronger with Gayle & Russel Playing in PCL instead of RAM SLAM, I appreciate Dwyane Smith for choosing Barbados in PCL over T20, he deserve another chance in Test Cricket.Much matured now .

Good on Tarzan : fellow Trident Pollard should follow suit : but alas ! :-[
"Port of Spain, Trinidad - Yannic Cariah slammed an unbeaten 94 while Justin Guillen hit 88 to lead the Denesh Ramdin XI to 311 for five on the first day of their three-day practice match against the Jason Mohammed XI at Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain, yesterday.
Both players are not contracted by the T&T Red Force franchise but could still make the team on a “pay for play†basis. Cariah faced 242 balls in a patient innings which featured three sixes and five fours while Guillen faced 147 balls and hit two sixes and eight fours.
Nicholas Pooran also got a half century yesterday, blasting four sixes and three fours in a 93-ball 61 before he was caught off the bowling of left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein who bagged two wickets for 40 runs off 13 overs. The match continues today at the Oval from 10 a.m"
Sarwan got bowled for 7. Taking a while to start up but I'm sure he'll be fine..that's what practice matches are for. Glad Ramdin is playing and captaining a practice team despite the drama with the TTCB, may be a sign things calm down

Team Barbados is the team to beat this season of PCL..let the game begin..good luck to PCL Success.
RAYAD EMRIT has been officially named as captain of the Trinidad and Tobago cricket team, also known as the “Red Force†for the 2014-2015 Regional Four Day Tournament.
The 32-year-old Emrit replaced current West Indies Test team skipper Denesh Ramdin, while veteran middle-order batsman Jason Mohammed is fancied to be his deputy.
The Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board (TTCB) held a weekend retreat at the Cascadia Hotel, St Ann’s and, on Saturday night, officially accepted the recommendation of the local selection panel to ratify the appointment of Emrit as the captain.
The decision ended a week of controversy with the TTCB confirming, then denying, Ramdin’s declaration on Monday evening that he was stripped of the captain, on the basis of his perspective duties with the regional team for tours of South Africa, Australia and New Zealand between the months of December and March.
The “Red Force†will begin their Four Day campaign against Barbados at the Queen’s Park Oval, St Clair on Friday.
In related news, the Ramdin XI and the Mohammed XI battled to a draw in the fourth and final trial match yesterday, at the Oval.
The Ramdin XI closed Saturday’s first day on 311 runs for five wickets with Yannic Cariah unbeaten on 94, while fellow left-handers Justin Guillen (88), Nicholas Pooran (61) and Evin Lewis (22) all contributing.
Ramdin could only muster 15 while drafted player and ex-Guyana and West Indies captain Ramnaresh Sarwan was dismissed for seven.
Yesterday, the Ramdin XI declared on 396/6 with Cariah unbeaten on 116 (248 minutes, seven fours, three sixes) while Bryan Charles was at the other end on 24. Daron Cruickshank was dismissed for 51 (123 balls, five fours, one six).
For the Mohammed XI, left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein copped two wickets for 61 runs.
The Mohammed XI, at their turn at the crease, reached 159/5 when the game was called off, with Kjorn Ottley scoring 47, Vikash Mohan 35, Mohammed 34 and Mark Deyal 21. Hosein (14) and Imran Khan (nought) were the not out batsmen, while Charles, Cruickshank, Daniel St Clair, Strassark Sankar and Ricky Jaipaul got one wicket apiece.
