Cricket issue high on Caricom Heads summit agenda

THE first of two half-yearly annual meetings of Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) gets underway in Suriname tomorrow with future governance of the regional economic integration movement and the 'politics' surrounding West Indies cricket high on the work agenda.

Jamaica's Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller was last evening winging her way to Suriname, determined that the two-day meeting take "a clear, principled stand on the democratic governance of regional cricket" and what this may involve for its future management by the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB), or some other entity.
