Badree applies for Red Force coaching job

Former West Indies leg-spinner Samuel Badree has decided to throw his hat in the ring to become head coach of the T&T Red Force team.

The T&T Cricket Board (TTCB) has advertised the position of head coach of the franchise with applicants having until April 30 to send in their resumes.

Badree, who became the first West Indian to coach at the Indian Premier League (IPL) when he took the position of spin bowling coach at the Delhi Daredevils last year, was selected as coach of the Windward Islands Volcanoes last year but could not take up the position due to his work commitments as a curriculum officer with the Ministry of Education in T&T.

Should he be successful in attaining the position, he will then get secondment from his post with the Ministry to the national team.

Teacher Badree will get the job.

Unless they consider his WIPA's role under Ramnarine....in which case his cork duck.
