Former West Indies batting star Ramnaresh Sarwan says he has welcomed the invitation to work with the West Indies team ahead of next month’s Tri-nations one-day international series in Ireland and the ICC Cricket World Cup in England and Wales.

The 38-year-old Sarwan, who played 87 tests, 181 ODI’S and 18 Twenty20 internationals between 2000 and 2013, will spend the remainder of the week working with the players, especially the batsmen at the team’s training camp in  Barbados.

Key batsmen Darren Bravo and Shai Hope led the group that spent long periods working with Sarwan in the nets yesterday, the second day of the team’s training camp currently underway at the cave hill campus of the University of the West Indies.
