GCB congratulates Chandrika on WI call-up

The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) extends congratulations to Rajindra Chandrika on his call up to the West Indies 14-man squad to take on Australia in two home Test matches. The first match starts on 3rd July in Dominica, and the second from 11th July in Jamaica.

The GCB is extremely proud of Chandrika’s growth as a cricketer and we believe he can take on the challenge at the highest level and produce handsomely. He made his first-class debut for Guyana in 2010 against Trinidad and Tobago and scored 65 in the first innings; ever since, he has been the much appreciated opener whom his fans believe will go on to attain success.

WICB launched its Professional Cricket League last year and the classy right-hander wasted no time in cementing his spot at the top of the order for the Guyana Jaguars as he kept scoring consistently. He has been Guyana’s most dependable opener in the longer version of the game.

And when he was given the chance to play for the WICB President Xi in the Australia warm-up match, he impressed again with an aggressive 74, hitting 10 fours. We believe he has the right attitude and discipline to compliment his skills and talent as a top cricketer. We are hoping that he makes the final 11 and start his journey as a West Indies Test player.

The executives, members and staff of the GCB wish Chandrika well as a West Indies player. We urge him to do justice to his selection and continue to make us proud.
