Samuel Badree has been named as an Assistant Coach of the West Indies senior Men’s team for the upcoming six-match white ball series against South Africa. Cricket West Indies (CWI) today announced that the former West Indies leg-spinner will join the squad for the three One-Day Internationals (ODI) and three T20 Internationals (T20I) from 16 to 28 March.

Badree said: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be asked by CWI to join the team and work with this great group of players in South Africa for the white ball leg of the tour.” Badree, who has previously assisted CWI as a spin bowling consultant and worked in the IPL, believes this opportunity to be “a continuation and an extension of that”.

He added: “I look forward to catching up with the players, some who I played with and most I already know, as we seek to acquit ourselves well on what is expected to be a challenging tour of South Africa. I also look forward to sharing my knowledge and experiences with the players as we look to bring some positive results to our loyal fans.”

Overthrow in the house

Badree gives up a good gig in the commentary box and on coaching staff in the CPL, IL20 and IPL to become an assistant coach for WI. This is a questionable decision.

Badders Overthrow Badree

all uh dem tree

coaching instead of commentary

West indian now not just Trini

Hate always multiplies by three
Am i talking about the short fat skunt maybe?
No, I say. I am kind every day
I wish i well and pray for him every day
I just wonder what will make a language impoverished lawyer
espouse such persistent hate
Its Badree from Barrackpore
He can't even speak well
But he has passed through the acceptance gate
He has a right to exist in this wicked diasporic space

I think this is incorrect. They hired Darren Ganga. Many confuse the two.
