With several ladies unable to turn up for the second Demerara trial match, coach Ryan Hercules took the opportunity to push in an intense training session yesterday at La Bonne Intention, East Coast Demerara.

Stabroek Sport spoke to the Cricket West Indies (CWI) Level Two coach who explained that the day could not be wasted in light of the amount of preparation needed for the Guyana Cricket Board senior female Inter-County tournament.

“Because of the lack of players turning up today, we had a short number of players turning up yesterday and that decreased today we decided to focus more on some batting, bowling and fielding, just some basic techniques and stuff,” he said.
