With over 300 confirmed Guyanese stranded overseas during the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, four cricketers stranded in Trinidad and Tobago are expected to be reunited with their families at home.
According to Lusignan Sports Club batsman, Steve Ramdass, he, along with Kandasammy Surujnarine, Garfield Benjamin and Demitri Cameron are expected to return home.
Ramdass, in an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport yesterday explained that through the media they learnt about the national Covid Task Force (NCTF) aiding stranded law students in Trinidad and quickly reached out to people for help.
The former Demerara under-19 opener said that journalists, John Ramsingh, who is also stranded in the United States of America and Avinash Ramzan “helped us get into contact with all the other people stranded worldwide and we worked as a team…we had to send a lot of e-mails to the consulate in Trinidad and the Task Force.”
While no flight has been designated, Ramdass informed this publication that they all have return flights via Caribbean Airlines but the consulate is expected to assist in organizing a flight through Caribbean Airlines or Liat.
