Neil McGarrell looks set to breathe life into his international career, after he was identified as a strong candidate to play for the United States national team that will travel to Hong Kong for the International Cricket Council (ICC) World Cricket League Division 3 in January.
The former Guyana captain and West Indies left-arm spinner is excited about the prospect, but he indicated that there was only one stumbling block.
McGarrell says he don’t have a problem representing the United States, but his job comes first.
McGarrell says once he is getting time off from his job he will definitely represent the United States.
The 38-year-old McGarrell was outstanding in his first year playing in United States Cricket Association tournaments.
He captained the Atlantic Region to a second-place finish at the recently concluded USACA Senior Nationals, which was won by the North West Region. He took six wickets for 44 runs in three matches.
McGarrell was also named the best bowler in the USACA Eastern Conference tournament played in Atlanta in September, after taking 7 for 60 in three matches.
United States will face Italy, Oman, Denmark, Papua New Guinea, and hosts Hong Kong in the World Cricket League Division 3 between January 22 and 29 next year.
