ST. JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC- Leeward Island selectors say they have made “sweeping changes” as they attempt to improving their team’s position heading into the 5th round of matches in the Regional Four-Day Tournament this weekend.
They have dropped five players- four Antiguans – Sylvester Joseph, Mali Richards, Justin Athanaze and Hayden Walsh Jr – along with Anguilla’s Lyndel Richardson ahead of their next match against Windward Islands at the Grenada National Stadium starting tomorrow. Their replacements are Antigua’s Orlando Peters, Montserrat’s Quinton Boatswain and Jaison Peters, Nevis’ Javier Liburd and Anguilla’s Yannick Leonard.
“The last two games we played we didn’t really play particularly well, especially against Trinidad, and a few guys didn’t really perform the way that we as selectors think they ought to and we think that we have to give someone else an opportunity to prove their skills,” said Ridley Jacobs, coach of Leewards.
