Many players who competed alongside the deceased cricketer have shared memories and heartfelt tributes, praising their sportsmanship, character, and contributions to the team’s success. The CPL itself has expressed its condolences, with the league offering its full support to the Amazon Warriors and the grieving family.
As the investigation into the crash continues, there is a heavy cloud of sadness hanging over the Guyana Amazon Warriors and the broader cricketing community.
