Dowlin could lead ‘A’ against Zimbabwe
West Indies’ selectors have named a 13-man squad for the Jamaica Cricket Festival, a competition that also involves Ireland, Canada and hosts Jamaica.
They also announced a 13-man team for West Indies A’s match against the touring Zimbabweans in Grenada. A media release from the board said they would name captains for the squads in the coming days.
Jerome Taylor and Ramnaresh Sarwan, who are part of the West Indies squad, were out of action since the Test series in Australia late last year.
Taylor pulled up with a hip injury during the first match in Brisbane, and Sarwan struggled with a back problem since the end of the series and wasn’t risked against Zimbabwe last month.
Denish Ramdin, Darren Sammy and Ramnaresh Sarwan could be the contenders for the captaincy position in the absence of regular Skipper Chris Gayle who is in India for the IPL 20/20 tournament.
Sarwan, Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Narsingh Deonarine are the Guyanese in the West Indies team which also include exciting young talent Darren Bravo.
Dowlin, a former Guyana Captain, is the only player over age 30 in the ‘A’ team and could be asked to lead that side which include fellow Guyanese batsman Assad Fudadin and fast bowler Brandon Bess.
