How wonderful to see WIPA so agreeable since the departure of Ramnarine as its head.

Satisfied with this ban reduction

Significant decrease in player remuneration with no consultation with players to boot

Players banned from international cricket

No player grievances regarding selection to the WI team

All no problem since the “new and improved” WIPA management team

Such a contrast to the often combative nature of the relationship between CWI and WIPA back in those dark times.

Since then….its been kumbaya, hugs and kisses between the recent leaders of the WIPA and pretty much any organization with authority

Praise be

What's your gripe Musicman? You miss the confrontational tactics of Dianath who want pelt chair at Man in meeting? You like Bacchanal? Diplomacy is not your cup of tea?

WIPA, on behalf of Mr. Campbell, filed an appeal to his four-year ban from cricket at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in December 2022; the matter was first heard in April 2023. Earlier this month, WIPA protested the length of time taken for CAS to hand down its ruling after an unprecedented 6th postponement.


He got a 4 year suspension reduced to less than 2 years I think that is a big win. They also criticized the lengthy process so hopefully this will not happen again.

Significant decrease in player remuneration with no consultation with players to boot


Really can you expound on this?

Players banned from international cricket


This too? Elaborate please.

They in effect killed his career. Hopefully he can play for JA and get a contract within the CPL or as a mercenary in leagues around the world. SMH.

He in effect killed his own career when he refused to provide a blood sample for testing.
