29th Captain: 7th Guyanese

Sep 01, 2016  by Sean Devers


Ramnaresh Sarwan was appointed the 29th West Indies Test captain

and [size=10pt]seventh Guyanese to hold the job when he was named skipper[/size]

for the tour to England in May 2007

The 26-year-old was taking on what many felt was [size=10pt]‘the poisoned chalice’ [/size]

of West Indies cricket after past captains such as Lara, Hooper and Chanderpaul

had failed in the job since the team began their slump

at the International level in 1995  :-[

Elegant middle order batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan has not been selected for next

month’s West Indies tour to Sri Lanka and Chairman of the WICB selectors explained

that the injury record and fitness problems was a main reason for his omission.

Ramnaresh Sarwan, the West Indies batsman who hasn't played since June 2011,

has won his case against the WICB over comments made about

his fitness and has been awarded $161,000 in damages. .

and for the owner of a fitness/training  gym he still looked unfit in the CPL

It was refreshing to see GUYANA with almost 25% Captains in W.I. cricket HISTORY !

Only Sarwan and Shiv got shafted in the slide from 1995

and maybe Hooper was on the cusp of the destruction !

He became a captain and that was good only for the records. Sarwan didn't do any better than all those who failed to inspire and resurrect Caribbean cricket. It doesn't matter where you are from. The point is what you contribute when given the opportunity or so to say, how you waste that.!!!!!!!!!!!
