KINGSTON – West Indies batting legend Lawrence Rowe has launched legal action against the Jamaica Cricket Association (JCA) for their decision to withdraw his name from the Players Pavilion at Sabina Park.
The Jamaica Observer newspaper reported Thursday that lawyers for the former batting star had already served notice on the JCA, the local governing body for the game.
“We received written notification from his lawyers on Monday of this week. It is now a legal matter and we will engage our lawyers,” JCA president Lyndel Wright was quoted as saying.
Last month, the JCA pulled Rowe’s name from the pavilion after he made several controversial comments in an interview. Rowe currently resides in the United States. (CMC)
