West Indies batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul
has withdrawn from the inaugural edition of the Caribbean Premier
League (CPL) due to contractual obligations with English county
Derbyshire. He will be replaced in the St Lucia franchise by Australia
batsman Luke Pomersbach.

Chanderpaul signed a contract with CPL offering himself for selection
but later realised that his commitment to Derbyshire allowed a release
only if it pertained to playing for West Indies.
"I am extremely sorry that I will not be able to participate in the CPL
because of contractual obligations," Chanderpaul said. "I would
definitely like to make myself available for the next edition, and will
have my contracts carry a clause that will permit me to play in future
editions of T20 tournaments."
