Bridgetown, Barbados, December 8 - (www.bcacricket.org) - Three West Indians including former international players Augustine Logie and Jimmy Adams, along with Barbadian Henderson Springer, are on a shortlist of six contenders for the post of West Indies team head coach.
That position, left vacant following the firing of Phil Simmons three months ago, as well as the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in light of the resignation of Michael Muirhead, are to be ratified at the quarterly meeting of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) in St. Maarten this weekend.
Well-placed sources in Antigua, the headquarters of the WICB and Jamaica, where WICB president Whycliffe "Dave" Cameron resides, told BCAcricket.org that former Australian batsman Stuart Law is among those on the shortlist for head coach, which attracted several candidates from England and Australia.
The sources did not name the other two candidates.
According to the sources, the WICB is very keen to have the new coach in place as early as next month to prepare for the tours to the Caribbean by England in February and March for three One-Day Internationals (ODI), to be followed by Pakistan for a four-match Test series.
