ANTIGUA OBSERVER – Former West Indies captain and one of the two living national heroes in Antigua & Barbuda, Sir Vivian Richards has called for the resignation of those charged with administering cricket at the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) level.
The batting legend, who captained the West Indies in 50 Test matches from 1984 to 1991, made the call after triumphant T20 skipper, Darren Sammy, took aim at the WICB over their lack of support for the team during the recent tournament in India.
“I don’t think Sammy would be a liar; I think Sammy is as honest as they come so it is going to be quite interesting, going forward, to see and to hear exactly what comes from the board,” he said.
The West Indies went into the last over against England on Sunday needing an unlikely 19 against the bowling of Ben Stokes.
Carlos Brathwaite hit four consecutive sixes as the West Indies became the first team to win the World Twenty20 Championship twice.
