After a record-breaking Regional 4-Day championship, four-time crowned Champs Guyana Jaguars will play a solitary practice match ahead of Cricket West Indies (CWI) 2018 Regional Super 50 tournament which bowls off from January 30.
Guyana, for the fourth consecutive year stomped their authority and imposed themselves as the best Regional 4-day team in modern times, following their unbeaten run which ended with a resounding win over the Trinidad & Tobago Red Force on Sunday at Providence.
The Guyana Jaguars will have to switch gears quickly in their quest for the ‘Regional Double’ this year
However, the team which has dominated the longest version of cricket in the region has been enduring mixed results in the 50 over format. The team has not been able to channel the same potency in the limited overs version but is seemingly on path as they prepare with the two warm-up games.
The Jaguars will engage a rest team on Friday at Providence as part of their preparatory shift from red ball cricket to the more fast paced 50 over cricket using the white ball.
The Jaguars find themselves decently placed in Group B with the likes of Jamaica Scorpions, Leeward Islands Hurricanes, United States and Kent, being the likely threats to the Guyanese title chase.
Meanwhile, Guyana will open their campaign in the Regional Super 50 versus the English lads from Kent when the two collide on January 31 at the Sir Viv Richards Cricket Ground, Antigua.
Guyana Jaguars Super50 squad: Shimron Hetmyer, Shiv Chanderpaul, Chandrapaul Hemraj, Leon Johnson, Raymon Reifer, Anthony Bramble, Sherfane Rutherford, Keemo Paul, Romario Shepherd, Veerasammy Permaul, Devendra Bishoo, Clinton Pestano, Ricardo Adams and Ramaal Lewis
