“From 2013-2016, Angelo Mathews is the player who notched the most number of games,” said Chairman of Cricket Selectors, Graeme La Brooy. If they had managed his workload at the time, he wouldn’t be in this situation today.”In addition to being relieved of bowling in international cricket, Mathews’ workload in Test cricket will also be managed. “We do have a system to manage player workload,” La Brooy affirmed. “The reason the 4-day tournament is on during this particular period is to prepare for the West Indies tour,” La Brooy said. “When you are down in the dumps, you need to get at least halfway there, before we start rotating,” La Brooy said.
