Sarwan goes into hiding

Ramnaresh Sarwan, the West Indies batsman, has gone into hiding in Guyana amid fears of escalating violence in the country.

Sarwan, who is currently training for the Stanford 20/20 tournament, abruptly left practice on Thursday after relatives called him and said that suspicious men were spotted in his neighborhood, said team manager Carl Moore and cricket board president Chetram Singh.
