GCB U17 50-Over trials: Budhoo, Ram leading strong sides

…as players vie for Guyana U17 selection

Afraz Budhoo

The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) has announced two teams led respectively by Parmeshwar Ram and Afraz Budhoo after rain severely affected the GCB Under-17 Inter- County Super50 last weekend.
Persistent rainfall during the latter rounds of the GCB Inter-County tournament curtailed the U17 tournament after only one match was completed. As such, the GCB’s junior selection panel, led by Andre Percival, has named a group of talented players which they hope will be able to compete in trial matches over the weekend.

Parmeshwar Ram

Players like Dave Mohabir, Renaldo Jeffery, Johnathan Mentore, Emmanuel Lewis, Adrian Hetmyer, Romario Ramdehol, Jathniel Nurse, and others will be looking to justify future selection to the Guyana U17 team, ahead of the Regional U17 tournament.
Team Afraz Budhoo: Vikash Wilkinson; Justin Dowlin; Adrian Hetmyer; Afraz Budhoo (Captain); Romario Ramdehol; Govin Persaud; Arvin Sukanand; Navin Budwa; Dave Mohabir; Navindra Sankar; Johnathan Mentore; Arun Gainda; Devon Wharton; Darwin Joseph and Arif Khan.
Team Parmeshwar Ram: Razam Koobir; Parmeshwar Ram (Captain); Emmanuel Lewis; Renaldo Jeffery; Romesh Bharrat; Marcel Nandu; Udesh Seetaram; Munesh Outar; Jathniel Nurse; Thierry Henry; Jayden Dowlin; Justin Doobay; Dhanesh Persaud; Micah Amsterdam and Ashton Simmons.
The GCB has noted that it would be monitoring the weather with the hope of having at least one trial match before selecting the Guyana team on Monday.
