“Sarwan, (Travis) Dowlin and Deonarine have not gotten their contracts renewed and we feel that this was not the best time to let them know that since they are focusing on playing hard cricket in South Africa to do Guyana and the West Indies proud,” Singh said. It’s absolutely ridiculous that the WICB is saying that Sarwan’s non-contract should serve as a motivator. Any right thinking person will say it is ludicrous that the reason for his exclusion is for fitness when he is fitter now than when he got the contract last year. Anyone who saw him recently would know that he is fit,” Singh contended.

“The WICB should produce the type of atmosphere to help develop the players and the fact that the WICB does not accept the responsibility to put in place a proper rehabilitation programme but instead penalize the players if they get injured says a lot,” Raphael said.
Raphael said he was not sure if Sarwan was given a fitness test just before the contract decision was made and he is of the opinion that this is just a smoke screen and a way of getting rid of Sarwan for non-cricketing reasons.
