The West Indies Cricket Board yesterday announced that the Regional Super50 winner's trophy will be named after one of the most revered leaders in the history of world sport, Clive Hubert Lloyd.

The legendary former West Indies captain was chosen particularly in recognition of his leading the West Indies to lifting the first two Cricket World Cups in 1975 and 1979.

The trophy has been named The Clive Lloyd Trophy and will be the trophy for which teams compete in the Regional Super50 from now on.

Trophies for outstanding performers in the tournament have also been named after five other legends of West Indies cricket.

Another former captain Richie Richardson, fearsome fast bowler Curtly Ambrose, super wicketkeeper Jeffrey Dujon, master all-rounder Collis King and phenomenal fielder Gus Logie will now have trophies named after them in their respective disciplines.
