Ramnaresh Sarwan to skip CPL 2020 due to personal issues

India Blooms News Service | @indiablooms | 13 Aug 2020, 05:12 pm

Jamaica/UNI: Jamaica Tallawahs' assistant coach Ramnaresh Sarwan has decided to skip the CPL 2020 season owing to personal reasons.

Tallawahs have replaced Sarwan with former West Indies spinner Ryan Austin and Vinod Maharaj in head coach Floyd Reifer's support staff.

"Sarwan requested leave for personal reasons and that was granted," Tallawahs CEO Jeff Miller told Trinidad and Tobago Newsday. "It's a big loss. Sars (Sarwan) brings a lot to the game - his knowledge, his experience and the way he has dealt with the players over the years, so it is a great loss."

Tallawahs star Chris Gayle - who was released by the franchise had criticised Sarwan in a video, blaming the former West Indies batsman for his unceremonious exit from Tallawahs. Gayle ended up signing for St Lucia Zouks before leaving out of the season, which begins on August 18.

"We are going to look to move forward. This is a rebuilding year for us, (but) I don't just want to say rebuilding. We are here to win the tournament. I think we have a great team and the guys are keen and ready to go, and let's see at the end what happens, but we are definitely looking forward to having a great tournament this year," he added.

Jamaica Tallawahs began their CPL campaign against St Lucia Zouks on Aug 19.
