Tuesday, April 27th 2010
THE five youngest players in the West Indies ’A’ team that swept all three matches against Zimbabwe in their recent short series in Grenada have been placed in the West Indies Cricket Board’s new High Performance Centre (HPC) in Barbados rather than included in the squad of 14 for the tour of Bangladesh May 2-25.
Chairman Clyde Butts explained yesterday that he and co-selectors Robert Haynes and Raphick Jumadeen felt that the day-to-day attention they would receive at the HPC would more benefit Brendan Bess, Kraigg Brathwaite, Shane Dowrich, Shannon Gabriel and Jason Holder at this stage of their development.

Surrey are hoping to lure West Indies batting great Brian Lara out of retirement as a shock signing for this season's Friends Provident T20 Cup.
Lara retired from international cricket in 2007 but he had nets at The Oval on Monday as the first stage to a possible comeback.
Telegraph Sport understands that the 40-year-old left-hander is now in discussions with Surrey officials who have lined up Lara as a possible replacement for leg-spinner Piyush Chawla whose international commitments with India are likely to restrict his availability for county cricket.
"We are talking to Brian about a possible; le future role in the club," said Surrey chief executive Paul Sheldon.
