DARIAN KING? Haydn Lewis? Nope, it’s Seanon Williams who’s being served up first.

The decision to go with the 24-year-old Williams over customary No. 2 Haydn Lewis was revealed during yesterday’s draw for the five-match tie at the Barbados Olympic Association’s headquarters.
“It’s a decision I mulled over for a couple days and I decided it’s the best one in looking for the W at the end of this weekend,” explained non-playing captain Kevin Yarde.
