Guyanese batsman Matthew Nandu
Guyana Harpy Eagles’ (GHE) opening batsman Matthew Nandu is the latest player from the Guyana team to be called up to participate in the Headley -Weekes Tri-Series tournament
A former West Indies U19 opening batsman, Nandu made his first-class debut during this year’s West Indies Championship (WIC), where he finished with 273 runs from five (5) matches, including a century on debut against Barbados in the first round.
He joins fellow Guyanese Kevlon Anderson, Ashmead Nedd, Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Gudakesh Motie, Kevin Sinclair, Veerasammy Permaul, Nial Smith and Tevin Imlach as nine players who have now been selected from the successful GHE team that won the WIC just a few weeks ago.
The President and Executive members of the Guyana Cricket Board have, in a statement, congratulated Nandu and the other Guyanese players selected for the series.
The Headley-Weekes Tri- Series will continue today, when the matchup between Team Weekes and West Indies Academy bowls off at the Coolidge Cricket Ground in Antigua. West Indies Academy drew first blood in the series, defeating Team Headley by 7 wickets last week.
