PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Perennial Trinidad and Tobago captain Daren Ganga has quit the post, two weeks after his side’s failed campaign in the Super50 series in Guyana.
In a release on Saturday, the 32-year-old announced he would be stepping down as head of the side he has led for the last nine seasons.
Last month, T&T went down to Jamaica in the final of the Super50, the premier regional one-day tournament.
“I have always believed that one of my most important duties as captain is to foster the development of the players in my team as a critical aspect of succession planning,” said Ganga.
“The evolution of the team into the mature unit it is, along with the emergence of a pool of potential leaders within the team reaffirm that the time is right for relinquishing the reins of captaincy.
“I wish to make it abundantly clear that I am not retiring from cricket and I continue to make myself available for selection on the national cricket team and pledge my support to the new captain.”
