Robert Clive

The UK government has placed a temporary export bar on an "incredibly rare" Indian silver Durbar set, made up of rosewater sprinklers, paan caskets and huqqa bases worth around 730,000 pounds, to offer a gallery or institution in Britain an opportunity to acquire it for public display.

Hundreds of people signed an online petition on Monday demanding the removal of a statue of Robert Clive, who played a key role in establishing Britain's colonial domination over India, in Shrewsbury, western England.

Lloyd's previous attempts at a presidential shot were blocked on the grounds that he did not meet the residential requirement since his home was outside the West Indies at that time.

Clive Lloyd has resigned from his role as non-member director of the West Indies Cricket Board, after being forced to take sides between the board and the Interim Management Committee (IMC) appointed by the Guyana government to run cricket in the country.

The tussle between the West Indies board and the Guyana government has put the Providence Test against Australia in doubt. The WICB shifted the first four rounds of the domestic first-class tournament out of Guyana and said that a call on the Test, scheduled for late April, will be taken later.

Former West Indian great Andy Roberts on Tuesday drubbed the WICB as clueless and said that president Julian Hunte and chief executive Ernerst Hilaire should resign from their posts.
