Kion Butterfield's tour of Kenya has come to a disappointing end as Bermuda team officials have opted to send the injured Warwick all-rounder home early.

Butterfield was among those making their debut tour with the senior national squad at this level.

But a badly injured left foot that resulted from a trip up in his Nairobi hotel room has put paid to any chance of Butterfield seeing action in Kenya and Dubai.

"We have been here over a week and he hasn't improved," team manager Lionel Tannock said.

"Brown (team physio Craig Brown) has been icing it and trying to get the swelling to go down - but all to no avail.

"So it has been decided to send Kion back home. And it's unfortunate because he didn't get a chance to play any international matches on tour."

Butterfield departed Kenya yesterday.

Cleveland skipper Jason Simons, St. David's all rounder Arthur Pitcher Jr., Bermuda Under-19 all-rounder Dennico Hollis and PHC wicketkeeper Khiry Furbert are all currently on standby.

However, coach Gus Logie is prepared to soldier on with the players already based in Africa.

"We are just going to have to work with what we have," Tannock said.
