Shallow vows to vacate CWI office if necessary 

Fri, Dec 5, '25 at 11:05 AM

Following his victory in the North Leeward constituency in St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ general elections last week, Cricket West Indies (CWI) President Dr. Kishore Shallow admits he has a career decision to make.


Shallow says he will choose a course of action following an assessment of his portfolio for the now governing New Democratic Party (NDP).


“Based on the portfolio that I am given—if I can manage both, I will proceed. If not, then I will have to resign,” Shallow was quoted by the Trinidad and Tobago Guardian.


The 41-year-old's first impression, however, is that it is indeed possible to effect both roles. “You know, there’s actually no conflict; there’s the potential to serve both,” he said.

It's necessary. Doesn't matter if he is a backbencher, he is conflicted. Caribbean man, for once do the decent and ethical thing and resign

Most insularist president of the cwi has small island inferiority complex

That should be an easy decision to make, conflict of interest or not. Take the moral high ground and resign the office of CWI post. All this deliberations are unnecessary, do the decent thing and leave.

Should have resigned already.

Exactly!

That tells me he is not going anywhere!

To be honest, I do not see a conflict.

Word from reliable sources here in SVG is that his salary is in the range of over eight hundred thousand US annually. They will probably need to have a gun pointed at his head before he gives that up. That is a lot of $$$ in these tough economic times.

What would constitute conflict in your opinion? There does not have to be conflict, the test is the POTENTIAL for conflict.
