Why is he at every match? Or that's the role of the CEO?

I'm just asking champ.. can't recall seeing the other CEOs at each match.

Maybe its something new... that's why I am asking what's his role exactly.

Is it to travel around with the team?

CWI paying for the trips?

I thought they broke... since he took up the CEO position I don't think he missed a match.

How does one sign up to be the CEO of CWI? I could do with these all expenses paid vacations too lol

Nahh only one main scout it got and thats the dear leader.... head scout/coach/selector.

On ah serious note though...the other CEOs might be a bit jealous... they aren't getting to travel all over with their teams.

If it’s because he is involved then I’m all for it

This team needs all the help it can get

Probably will lose this one too

I really want to see plans, not hear man say they have a plan but we can’t see it

There is precedent for the ubiquitous Cricket West Indies CEO.

I take it you weren't around more than a decade ago when former CEO Ernest Hilaire was travelling around with the team snd profiling at Lords and other places

Where you see them say they broke? They made a profit. They say this year and next will be lean years because of the upcoming tours but they good.

As for the CEO traveling around many CEOa do this guess yall dont watch other teams playing cricket.

Not saying I agree with it unless he is there on a business deal. But he's early on in his role so maybe he has to see the running of the team from the business side.

Them ain't broke? Well why did they scrap the WI U19 two day tournament? For the past couple years all they playing is the 50 overs. Why they can't afford a longer FC season?

And I am curious, which other CEO does travel with the team to every match? Is the CEO for PCB with the team?

Was Australia CEO here on the recent tour?



Maybe I missed it...

Seriously, I don't blame the Shallow one for making himself 'available'. This ensures the Dehring guy (all clad in West Indies players outfit to boot) doesn't steal his thunder.

Well Dehring is at every match that the team plays.. so can't blame the President for doing the same.

All expenses paid trips... on the other hand they don't have money to do an extended FC season or even play the regional U19 3 day tournament.

CWI not broke. They have a surplus now after Johnny Grave fixed what idiot leaders in the Caribbean could not do.
