Two issues relating to the appointment of the new Cricket Ombudsman are now attracting the attention of the court.

The Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) has filed an injunction against the functioning of the Ombudsman while a separate motion was filed to quash the appointment of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) named Cricket Ombudsman.

On May 3, the GCB held an extraordinary meeting where Attorney-At-Law Stephen Lewis was named to the post of Cricket Ombudsman.
