EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR of Cricket Hall of Fame, Micheal Chambers, strongly believes that the only person with the capacity to revive Jamaica and West Indies cricket is former Cricket West Indies (CWI) president Dave Cameron.
Speaking at a function to recognise former Jamaican Prime Minister Portia Simpson-Miller, who was inducted recently into the Cricket Hall of Fame, Chambers declared: “The only person who can resurrect Jamaica’s cricket, West Indies cricket, and I am going to get in trouble when I say this, is Dave Cameron.”
In 2020, Cameron threw his name in the hat for the International Cricket Council (ICC) chairman but received no support from CWI or his national association, the Jamaica Cricket Association (JCA).
However, Chambers believes that Cameron is still the best man for the job, both locally and regionally, and calls on the JCA and the CWI to mend fences with the former CWI boss and seek a way forward.
“For whatever reason, Jamaica did not support him when he was running (for ICC chairman), and he lost, but the ICC was willing to entertain him as chairman, but Jamaica’s board said they would not support him as chair for ICC.

Chambers you fall from a tree?
You could've said Jamaica and leave it at that, though I doubt very much.

Dave Cameron had one major fault as president of WI-CB, that is, he wanted to take money from players wages to fund other programs, that was stupide, but! I do think he had a vision or plan

firstly, to realize a plan you need money, yuh can't use players' money to fund yuh plan and then yuh can't get vex when they don't want you taking their money. the infantilism was strong with that dude. If god forbid he ever becomes cwi head honcho again, his starter pack has to include a bottle

Stupid? Yes, in that context, at that time, and with abysmal communication. I agree with you on the rest.
