In yesterday’s issue of the Kaieteur News, I wrote a story headlined ‘Beaton’s action reported during Franchise League, but was selected for Super50.
In the article, I stated that a Berbice Umpire, who officiated in the Cricket Guyana Inc. (CGI) 50-over Franchise match, had reported Ronsford Beaton’s action to the Match Referee of that match.
In the story I explained why the CGI’s selectors picked him after talking to someone from GCB who disclosed that a report was never sent to the Board.
If the headline of the story suggested that the CGI was to be blamed for Beaton’s selection that was not my intention.
By explaining what the GCB official told me I was trying to show that because CGI did not receive any report on Beaton’s action (Official or unofficial) he was selected because of his good performance in the tournament.
I extend my apologies to Beaton and CGI if the story had an adverse effect on the Cricket Board or the player in any way. (Sean Devers)
