Hats off to Sammy for providing excellent commentary throughout the T20 World Cup. He brought his folksy Caribbean style to the box which was really well received. He joins a very good stable of Caribbean commentators making us proud in their various effective styles. Job well done, looking forward to hearing a lot more of him.

He will be among the next crop of regional international commentators.

Sammy's lively attitude is a welcome addition to commentary. I would like to see him in a coaching role with the W.I.

Darren Sammy was very articulate and extremely knowledgeable during commentary.
I respected Sammy as a captain . I actually think he was a great captain one the best WI ever had .
I therefore, would like to see him involved in WI cricket in some form or fashion .
We need some of our great players to be part of the administration of WI cricket .
There are far too many fringe players like the present Chief Selector,Coach, Team Manager, chief bowling coach and some like the current Board President and his Deputy who I do not think ever played first class cricket.
All of the major Test playing countries have their great players involved in leadership roles in the administration of their cricket .
Why WI cannot do the same ? Is it that WI cannot manage success!!

Sammy was well received and can grow as a commentator.

For for former players who have the acumen to step up for administrative roles. I wouldn't blame the current and past crop for these deficiencies
