Kraigg calls on Dessie for help

West Indies opening batsman Kraigg Brathwaite has called on the expertise of legend Desmond Haynes to help improve his game ahead of the three Test bio-secure series against England next month.

The 27-year-old Brathwaite has been struggling for form at the crease in his last 20 Tests with an average of 33.3 and scoring rate of 40.8 and will be looking to mirror his glorious performance back in 2017 at Headingley.

Brathwaite narrowly missed out on twin centuries three years ago, scoring 134 and 95 as the West Indies chased down 322 for victory in the second test.

Since then, the right hander has failed to make significant impact and has sought advice from fellow Barbadian Haynes. (AGB)
