Much has been raved about Guyana’s recent success during the Cricket West Indies (CWI) Professional Cricket League Regional Four-Day Tournament after the South Americans won the title for five consecutive years up until they were dethroned by Barbados in this year’s season shortened by two rounds because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Leon Johnson and his troops are deserving of all the praise, so too are coaches Eusan Crandon and Rayon Griffith who are among the architects of Guyana’s winning combinations.
But something is amiss. Guyana hasn’t found the right equilibrium for producing quality international cricketers amidst their regional success. The former in my mind is worthier of applause since there is no shortage of cricket aptitude in this part of the world.
