The Barbados Nation Moseley cut from panel
Philip Spooner - 20 September 2001

Former West Indies fast bowler Ezra Moseley has again been ignored by the Barbados Cricket Association (BCA), as it prepares to name junior selectors for the 2001-2002 cricket campaigns.

Investigations yesterday revealed that Moseley has been sacked as chairman of the youth selection committee just a week after he and former West Indies batsman Alvin Greenidge were released from the senior selection panel.

An inside BCA source revealed that former Barbados captain Roland Holder, whose playing days on the national side seem to have come to an end, has joined the Youth Selection Committee.

Later this week

Also on the fresh list are former Barbados allrounder George Linton, Jeff Broomes, back after a year's absence, Greenidge, and Clinton St Hill as chairman. Broomes, like St Hill, is a member of the BCA board of management.

NATIONSPORT checked with the BCA office yesterday and was informed that the list of selectors will be made available later this week.

The office was not willing to comment on any changes to the selection panel. Holder, however, confirmed that he had been offered and had accepted the job.

It's a tough ride for `Moses' (Moseley), said the source. He gave two years of good service and now he is no longer needed. It was quite sudden.

He watches a lot of cricket at all level and is always willing to make a contribution. I hope he is not lost to Barbados cricket.

Moseley's sacking from the senior panel is quite surprising as he was responsible for the side which won last month's West Indies One-Day competition in Guyana. From that side four players were selected to the West Indies Under-19 training squad.

He is also a member of the West Indies Under-19 panel.

The elevation of St Hill, the manager of the Barbados Under-15 team, is somewhat surprising as this is the first time he has been a member of any selection panel, but the source noted that his interest in junior cricket would be welcomed.
