Dillon joins Red Force coaching staff

MERVYN DILLON, ex-TT and West Indies fast bowler, will be working with the TT Red Force team as an assistant to coach Kelvin Williams.

The 44-year-old Dillon was involved in the team’s training session yesterday at the National Cricket Centre in Balmain, Couva, ahead of today’s West Indies Four-Day Championship fifth-round match against the Barbados Pride.

The Red Force-Pride game will be a day/night affair at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy, Tarouba, starting at 2 pm each day.

Dillon, the veteran of 38 Tests and 108 One Day Internationals (taking 131 and 130 wickets respectively) said his coaching role has not been made official, but he has volunteered to help the struggling Red Force team.

“My actual appointment has not been finalised,” said Dillon yesterday. “We are still talking and looking at different situations. I volunteered to start until some things are to my liking or (when) I’m comfortable. But it’s my country and I’m always happy to represent.”

These teams need specialist coaches, who is T&T batting coach, or is Merv going to do the job for every discipline?
