Walsh, Holding, Rowe to be honoured

KINGSTON, Jamaica (CMC):

Three West Indies legends from Jamaica will be recognised with landmarks around Sabina Park being named in their honour.

Michael Holding will have the southern end of the ground named in his honour, fellow fast-bowler Courtney Walsh will have his name branded at the northern end, and Rowe will be recognised with his name attached to the players' dressing rooms in the Great Northern Stand.

The Jamaica Cricket Association will host the naming ceremonies today during the lunch break on the opening day of the first Test between West Indies and India at the ground.

Walsh as well as Rowe, who now resides in the American city of Miami, are expected to attend the function, but Holding is likely to be missing.

All three are former Jamaica captains.
