ROSEAU, Dominica (CMC) – Former Windward Islands manager, Tom Lafond, said he is stunned by the omission of off-spinner Shane Shillingford from the West Indies 15-man squad for next month’s tour of Bangladesh, and believes insularity is creeping back into regional selection policy.
West Indies selectors announced the squad last week, with Guyana left-arm spinner Veerasammy Permaul as the only new cap but with Shillingford excluded.
According to the outspoken Lafond, the non-inclusion of Shillingford can not be justified.
