Former Test players Roland Butcher and Ryan Hinds have joined the Barbados cricket selection panel, saying they are committed to ensuring this country maintains its proud tradition in the sport.

Butcher, the head coach at the University of the West Indies (UWI), has taken over as chairman of selectors, while Hinds, who was recently enlisted at the Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) as a coach, is the other new face on the panel.

It signals the end of the road for former chairman Hendy Wallace and Sherlon Greaves, both of whom had served since 2012. Hendy Broomes, the former Carlton and Barbados fast bowler, remains on the three-man panel.

Butcher, a cousin of former Guyana and West Indies Test batsman Basil Butcher, told the NATION he was looking forward to his new role.
