SHERWIN CAMPBELL is bombarded by fans as he signs an autograph
during yesterday's session.
CRICKET FANS turned out in their hundreds yesterday to see the
West Indies players.
The venue was Sporting World on the third floor of Cave
Shepherd, Broad Street, and it was pandemonium as fans sought
autographs from the players.
Local boy Sherwin Campbell was the No. 1 hit, but Hendy Bryan,
Merv Dillon, Jimmy Adams and Pedro Collins were not left out
during the hour-long session.
Chris Dehring, chief marketing officer of the West Indies
Cricket Board, said the exercise was done mainly to bring the
players closer to the public.
"We want to bring the guys into the focus of the people," he
said.
