Didn't think they'd go ahead with it but here we are. Wonder if that leads to separate staff (eg one head coach may prefer a different bowling coach than the other guy) and how much of their budget CWI will have to allocate

Yep
England does and India, though not officially, you see Dravid doing such
Good question there bdatry...
I think cost will be a major factor I don't see them having literally different batting and bowling coaches though your point of a certain head coach might require a different batting coach for their format....
But I think it will come down to cost though.

We are copying someone's solution to a different problem.

Forget Burnham who has been dead since 1985, the question is who made Mia head of the Caribbean?

CWI has marginalized Test and with only 5-6 test a year or 2-3 short tours want to split roles....
It's like buying a coal electricity plant at this stage.

My question is why did this profess not start when Simmons resigned many months back.
They were just hoping that coley would get lucky with a win in South Africa and that would have justified hiring him as full time coach at a fraction of what anyone else makes sense would have cost
Nothing else justifies waiting all these months

CWI running out of ideas. Instead of getting rid of the three separate team nonsense for all three formats they double down and say lets add a coach to the mix. smh
CWI can barely find enough players to make one decent team much less having different teams across all three formats.

CWI would be better served by a secondary coach to elevate the skills of the players on the fringe! Example, identifying and working on their weaknesses!

After more than US$2 million cost, is there one thing Skerritt has left the CWI that they can build on?
