Guyana President Bharat Jagdeo will hold separate meetings later today in his nation's capital with officials from the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and the West Indies Players' Association (WIPA) in an attempt to settle their bitter dispute.

Attorney-at-law Gerard Pinard, a member of the WICB's negotiating team, confirmed today's meeting with President Jagdeo, chairman of the Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), which is similar in its function to the African Union.
