BRIDGETOWN, Barbados (CMC) -- A name change is coming for the West Indies Cricket Board as the beleaguered organisation looks to restructure its operations and create a distinct commercial arm.

The WICB will be renamed 'Cricket West Indies' and will focus on the governance aspect of the game while a commercial body which will be revealed in coming months, will address the business affairs of the organisation.

President Dave Cameron, speaking in the Cayman Islands last weekend, said this was one of the key strategic changes being undertaken by the WICB as it sought to improve its administration of the game.

"We have resolved to change the name of the WICB and we will be called Cricket West Indies," Cameron told Cayman Cricket's Annual Awards Dinner in George Town last Saturday.

Aye they owe me "CRICKET WEST INDIES ' was named by me a long time ado. Surely they could at least acknowledge my effort.
Administrator come to my defense please.

Yeah! A strategic move to shelter away from the big USD$42mil.
But in terms of cricket it will be, "the same sheep wearing wolf clothing".

Time for me to stop sitting on the sidelines waiting for them to fold.
Time for me to move in my None Profit Cricket Board. WINPCB. I will star off with players who are all under the age of 18 and push for ICC status on a semi pro basis. Watch out for you middle stump CWI!
