Cricket West Indies president Ricky Skerritt says he has not made a decision on who to support for International Cricket Council (ICC) Chairman just yet despite stories suggesting he would, at the very least, not be supporting the bid of his predecessor, Dave Cameron

Speaking on Antigua Observer Radio show, ‘Good Morning Jojo’, Skerritt said he had not responded positively or negatively to a letter from Cameron because it did not seek a response.

“[…] we received a letter from my predecessor which, in effect, he said the letter speaks for itself and he said, looking forward to your support. Nowhere did the letter ask for anything,” said Skerritt.

Skerritt was referring to claims from Cameron that he sent a letter requesting that the CWI support him in his bid for chairman of the ICC, in effect offering him as a candidate the organization nominates.

Not making sense Mr Skirrett.

Anyway, I wouldn't envy your position.

If you throw your support behind The Big IDIOT, it will be seen by some as "selling out" after the recent steadfast and successful campaign against him.

On the other hand, if you fail to provide support to a fellow West Indian for such a high profile position, you'll be seen as vengeful in that campaign's aftermath.

Both points of view are IDIOTIC and speak to your perceptions of us.

My point of view is simple.Cameron in his stewardship of CWI,clearly demonstrated an INCOMPETENCE,ARROGANCE AND MALFEASANCE SUGGESTING THAT HE SHOULD NEVER HOLD ANY EXECUTIVE POSITION IN ANY ORGANIZATION

Between you and Mr Skirrett, I'm not sure who making more sense.

If I had a vote though, I'd go with the latter. Based on your shouting post, it looks like you're the one who is vengeful. When you hate, you hate.

I do not hate anybody.My attitude to Cameron is the same as it is towards Trump.Those 2 Narcissistic people should not hold Executive positions.DA IS ALL
I do not wish them bad things,I just do not want them in positions of power as they have demonstrated clearly what they do with power.
If you think that is hate then you are mistaken
