PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (CMC):West Indies second-choice wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin will lead Trinidad and Tobago in the upcoming first-class season.
His appointment follows the departure of the long-serving Daren Ganga who quit the post unexpectedly last week.
The 26-year-old Ramdin served as Ganga's understudy and has led the West Indies in one one-day international and three Twenty20 Internationals.
He has been viewed as future West Indies captain but his poor all-round form saw him dropped from the regional side last June. He remained sidelined until recently when he was surprisingly called up to the one-day tour of Bangladesh.
Ramdin, who has played 42 Tests and 84 one-day internationals since making his debut in 2005, is currently on the Test tour of India.
