Long serving West Indies women’s cricket coach Sherwin Campbell, conspicuously absent from the team currently campaigning in round three of the ICC Women’s Championship in Sri Lanka, has been sacked by the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB)
Campbell who was instrumental in the rise of the West Indies women into the top half of the international women’s rankings over the last seven years, has been replaced by fellow Barbadian Vasbert Drakes, the former West Indies allrounder.
Campbell allegedly sent a private message via Whatsapp to a senior member of the team in which another senior player was the subject of much discussion. However, the discussion was relayed to a member of the WICB who found the coach’s message and discussion to be in poor taste.
A source close to the situation said Campbell never intended the message to go past the person to whom it was sent.

There is more to this story than meets the eye. Maybe the message is connected to the "real story".
