Gudakesh Motie and Akshaya Persaud have been brought into the Guyana Jaguars side for the sixth round of the West Indies Championship against Jamaica Scorpions from today in Jamaica. Shimron Hetmyer has departed for West Indies duties while Devendra Bishoo is reportedly dropped.
Motie, 24, is a left-arm orthodox bowler with 99 first-class wickets from 28 matches while Persaud is a 22-year-old left-arm batsman who also bowls left-arm orthodox.
Persaud made his first-class debut against Scorpions back in 2018 and only played one more match but recently turned out for the Combined Colleges and Campuses in the Regional Super50 where he scored two half centuries and picked up four wickets.
