DEONARINE JOINS SQUAD IN SOUTH AFRICA

Georgetown, Guyana - West Indian middle-order batsman Narsingh Deonarine arrived in South Africa, joining the rest of the Windies squad for the current One-Day International (ODI) series.

This was confirmed to Guyana Times Sport on Tuesday evening by West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Corporate Communication Officer Phillip Spooner.

“Narsingh is in South Africa with the team and is enjoying his training and participating in all team activities,” Spooner indicated via email.

The Guyanese left-handed batsman had replaced his injured countryman Assad Fudadin in the West Indies Test squad, but a United Kingdom in-transit visa issue had delayed the 31-year-old joining the squad. West Indies lost that series 2-0.

Further, Deonarine missed the first two ODIs. However, he will be available for the final three games. The third will be played today, while the final two games are scheduled for January 25 and 28.

However, it is still unclear if Deonarine has been granted the UK in-transit visa or he travelled through the US, since he is a Green Card holder.

Deonarine had submitted his relevant documents to the British High Commission Office of Immigration here on December 22 to be processed. He was told then that his passport should have been returned here in 15 working days.

This publication understands that more stringent procedures for screening persons for a UK in-transit visa were put in place since the 2012 Olympic Games in London.

“Persons from Guyana … have a different process to go through to get their UK in-transit visa to travel to England; there is a new process and each application has to go through a more stringent process of screening,” a WICB spokesman had told Guyana Times Sport on January 9.

Asked why Deonarine’s application was taking longer to be processed, the WICB official said he was not in a position to give any details then.

Fudadin, also a left-hander, fractured a finger during warm-ups on the opening day of the first Test at Centurion.

He was forced to undergo surgery that same day. Ironically, Fudadin was a replacement for Darren Bravo, who pulled out of the tour for personal reasons.

The delivery got a bit big on the batsman and he was rather wafting it.

couldn't cling on but his captain was on hand to mop up
