Guyana v Ireland at Port of Spain

FOLLOWING a near three-hour session at the Queen’s Park Oval in sweltering heat yesterday afternoon, captain of the Guyana NAGICO Super50 team, Christopher Barnwell, said they would not be taking Ireland lightly in their opening game, which starts at 14:00hrs today.“We are not going to take them or any team lightly. Obviously, they are a team with international experience, but we have a group of players who are experienced such as Shiv Chanderpaul, Ramnaresh Sarwan and Narsingh Deonarine, so we just need to go out there and do the basics right and we will be victorious,” said Barnwell.
Quizzed on the composition of the team, the Demerara Cricket Club all-rounder said it is a good one on paper, but at the end of the day, they still have to go out there and execute the basics, as the game is played on the field and not on paper with names.
Pugnacious opener Trevon Griffith is expected to open the Guyanese batting today against the Phil Simmons-coached Ireland lineup, with Chanderpaul as his partner, while Sarwan, Leon Johnson, Deonarine and Barnwell will follow in that order.

If was setting the batting order, i would let Shiv open.

However, I don't think it will be that way.  Remember who is coach!  ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

he not playing on the bench

Royston Crandon will lead the lower order, while wicketkeeper batsman Anthony Bramble, along with spin twins Devendra Bishoo and Veerasammy Permaul, will lend support to the top and middle-order batsmen, with Ronsford Beaton throwing in his lot as well.
