Players’ eager as Regional U17 50-over tourney returns – Coach Nedd
The Regional U17 50-over tournament is set to be played in Trinidad and Tobago from July 17-28.
Alvin Mohabir will lead Guyana in the upcoming Regional U17 tourney.
The competition was last played in 2019 and it is the only title that has eluded Guyana at the age group level with their closest effort being in 2016, when a Bhaskar Yadram led team took the runner up spot. That year Guyana played unbeaten throughout the tournament and Trinidad and Tobago took the title only after their final round fixture against the Guyanese was called off due to rain.
Following a practice session on Wednesday at Bourda, Coach Garvin Nedd told Kaieteur Sport that preparation is going well so far and the players have shown the eagerness to do well. “We are fortunate to have a break in the weather and we are thankful for the opportunity to be able to use the GCC facility to fine tune our preparations. The players are willing to work hard and are looking forward to represent their country with credit,” he added.
Nedd stated that the team is a balanced one and he is impressed with the players. “I am impressed with some of the players and I am sure they can make an impact in this tournament. We have a number of players with experience at this level which will serve as an asset for us,” he posited.
Mavindra Dindyal, Jadon Campbell and Zachary Jodha are returning from the last Regional Under17 tournament.
Dindyal and Rampertab Ramnauth have represented the West Indies at the U15 level, while another former West Indies U15 player Isai Throne has missed out on selection due to an injury.
Alvin Mohabir has been appointed Captain of the team with Ramnauth as his deputy.
The squad reads Alvin Mohabir (Captain), Rampertab Ramnauth (Vice Captain), Jadon Campbell, Romeo Deonarine, Anthony Khan, Marvindra Dindyal, Zachary Jodha, Jonathan Van Lange, Nityanand Mathura, Kevin Kisten (W-keeper/Batsman), Bruce Vincent, Golcharran Chulai, Dillon Ramsaroo and Sasenarine Harricharran.
