To whom it may concern,

DISCARDED Guyana and West Indies middle order batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan called on the Guyana Cricket Board to make public, his medical report based on his axing from the national team to contest the upcoming West Indies Cricket Board Calypso Cup T20 tournament. Dutifully, the GCB did just that while stating that disciplinary measures will be looked at, following allegations of threats made by the 31-year-old right-handed batsman to chairman of selectors Rayon Griffith.
Below is a copy of Sarwan’s medical report sent by Forrest Nelson, a therapist attached with the Memorial West Hospital, in Pembroke Pines, Florida, which the GCB viewed as unethical and possibly illegal.

To whom it may concern,
My name is Forrest Nelson. I am a therapist at Memorial West Hospital located in Pembroke Pines, Florida. I have had the privilege to treat Ronnie Sarwan for a back pathology for approximately six weeks.
Initially Ronnie presented with radicular pain into his right buttocks region. Ronnie received Physical Therapy that consisted of manual techniques, independent soft tissue mobilisation, manual and self-active mobility, dynamic and static stretching, strengthening exercises and beginning plyometrics. 
Ronnie currently presents without radicular symptoms. He has shown the ability to accept high level strengthening exercises, functional mobility exercises, and sport specific activities without evidence of back or radicular symptoms. Ronnie has demonstrated an ability to tolerate stress that would appear comparable to his sport.
Best Regards,
Forrest Nelson B.S , P.T.A, A.C.E P.T
