It might be bad luck, bad coincidence or bad timing, but in the 2019 WC, the three worst teams all have Caribbean born head coaches, when last have the Caribbean produced an international successful coach? Is the Caribbean failing on all levels of cricket?

Has there been a successful Caribbean coach ever
No to the thread title and yes to your last question .
In reply to dayne
Your question(s) can be considered as loaded.
Are you insinuating that hiring Simmons as the new WI Head Coach is 'tainted' because he happens to be the presiding head Coach over the last placed Afghans?
In reply to Drapsey
LOL, that was some interpretation to the questions.
The next question in that case, why do people expect the West Indies National Coach have to be from the Caribbean?
Rohan Kanhai?
In reply to WICFan
Well it could also lead to the question, is WI cricket not progressing because there are no effective coaches available to convey what is necessary for progress?

Who can coach Cornwall to do this? I guess he can jump, but afterwards?

Define a successful coach. Define an international successful coach.
I'll say we have quite a bit of good bowling coaches. Not probably head coach material...

Otis, Phil Kanhai, and Gus-we don't care what the OECS say

Has there every been a successful coach?
If we are looking to coach at this level we dead.
I feel the other teams coaches are not coaching line and length without it being specific to each batsman. And highlighting the strengths of bowlers to our batters. Yes correct flaws crèping in. But if we not looking to have the complete package by the time the player is 19 ... all that will be missing is experience, then I think we could change heads 'til thy kingdom come.

OECS Staurt Williams was the worst coach ever ....

I remembered once one of the foreign coaches ( an Australian ) saying about the WI players, that some of techniques most Australian U19 players knew, most of the newly selected WI players to the Test never heard about those techniques , he had to show them, so definitely the WI players need coaches.

coaching is needed at the level below WI representation, hiring a multimillion dollar coach and having him living in Barbados or Antigua is not money well spent.
