Why the death of Indian ball beaters in Guyana cricket? Farouk Bacchus is the last Indian ball beater from Guyana in test matches.
Chandrapaul Hemraj was not given his opportunities in January 2019. Bramble and Permaul also endured the same nonsense. Hemraj and Bramble above over and beyond Campbell and Dowrich, every time
Veerasammy Permaul has been victimized by the selectors. Lance Gibbs endured similar fate until Worrell became captain. Clyde Butts tried. Most unbelievable most refreshing, Clyde Butts, Robert Haynes, Eldine Baptiste and Courtney Walsh selected 6 Indians in a 15 man West Indies squad in April 2012. This Mande recognize the profound statement. Tino Best and Sunil Narine replaced the injured Shannon Gabriel and Kemar Roach for the second and third Test matches respectively. A few years later, only one Indian is constantly selected in teams. Also, Indian captain never respected as leader save Rohan Kanhai. Kanhai should have replaced Sobers at Bourda in 1968, five years and 20 tests matches later with no victories Kanhai was given the task with numerous waste of man hours and foolishness in print. Kanhai should have been West Indies captain for perhaps 33 test matches. One wonders - what Gibbs and Sobers numbers would really looked like?
Permaul is Indian, spinner, Berbice cricketer with no Clyde Walcott and Clyde Butts.

Lal Munilal was my favorite. He never lived up to my expectations. I preferred Munilal over Kallicharran. Kallicharran was touch playing batsman. Kanhai is the best ever. Joe Sukwah was the ball-beater of that era.
Grafters, touch and ball-beater always coexisted in cricket. Roy Fredericks was a master of the three aspects at the crease. Why no Wasim Raja, Virender Sehwag Saim Ayub, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, and Nicholas Pooran - in Berbice, Essequebo and Demerara? Why aren't there Kanhai, Kallicharran, Bacchus, and Sarwan of current times? Why no Fazal Mahmood, Sarfraz Nawaz, Imran Khan, Shoaib Akhtar, Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Jasprit Bumrah - Indian fast bowlers - in Berbice, Essequebo and Demerara?
Is Henry common ancestor of Shimron Hetmyer and Shamar Joseph in the Maroon experience? Nedd, Permaul, Thorne, Rutherford need to be in GAW squads and teams. I don't like CPL. I don't see any benefit to Berbice cricket and Guyana cricket. I advocate development of cricket in Guyana. I advocate if Guyana stays within the confines of CWI - then GCB must at the very least ensure regional cricket is played against Berbice, Demerara and Essequebo in every competition. And not only that but three international matches in Guyana on every limited overs tours in West Indies. facilities must be of top international standards. Regional and international cricket in Berbice, Demerara and Essequebo must be at least quarterly events. Guyana cricket must predominate above over and beyond the marginalizing prejudicial and disrespectful behaviors of West Indies Cricket.
