Recall- THE WICBC/CWI or wat-ever name they called themselves- gave away our cricket to the foreigners for a 50 year contract- many of us were flabbergasted.
PM Rowely is currently chairing a cricket conference- Lloyd, Mia and Rowley slammed this give away and they are going to pry open that contract.
FIX THAT DEAL
PM Rowely is currently chairing a cricket conference- Lloyd, Mia and Rowley slammed this give away and they are going to pry open that contract.
Lloyd was also baffled by the “50-year” deal between CWI and CPL. And Shallow stated that he would have preferred more “favourable terms”.
Rowley opened the door for the discussions to follow, when he spoke about “one opportunity lost,” to have a larger share in the multi-billion-dollar cricket industry.
“There are opportunities and sometimes we lose those opportunities. One opportunity lost is to be in a position to ensure that (we are) in the multi-billion industry and the money-making part of the business,” said Rowley.
“On that comment, I want to say today that in the interest of West Indies cricket, and managing resources that are available to us, or should be available to us, it is absolutely essential to reopen the CPL contract and to look at the resources of West Indies cricket. That lop-sided contract must not stand,” he added.
