West Indies’ newly-minted star bowler, Guyanese Shamar Joseph and children in the east Berbice community of Baracara are set to benefit significantly from GTT now that he has signed on to be that telecommunications provider’s brand ambassador, company officials said Friday.

GTT’s Chief Commercial Officer, Kerchelle Jn. Charles said, through the three-year agreement, Mr Joseph would receive business mentorship and the children of Baracara, a community on the Canje River, would be supported in their sport and educational pursuits.

She said GTT would assist in supplying cricket gear to the students. “We’ve seen the school, we understand the needs. We see them playing a lot of cricket so we want to help them with cricket gear, the students with school books, uniforms. You know, the necessities of schools we will support,” she said.

One of the greatest transition in west Indies cricket history began on this day 50 years ago today. The great, Sir Andy Roberts began his international cricket career as the most impressive fast bowler during his time. Sir Andy was very quick and fearsome, he was deadly. Thank you Sir Andy, for all you have given to the game of cricket. Sir Andy Roberts was from Antigua and the Leeward Islands.
