Gibsons departure wont change much for West Indies
Sat, Aug 23, '14
West Indies getting rid of Ottis Gibson as coach was not surprising considering their poor recent results but the timing, as usual, was a little bizarre.
The West Indies Cricket Board announced on Tuesday it had “mutually agreed to terminate their association” on the eve of the one-day international against Bangladesh. West Indies won by three wickets, but the main talking point was Gibson’s departure. Bangladesh are such a weak team that West Indies at home should not lose under any circumstances. The board should have parted company with Gibson a week earlier to avoid distractions.
