Shivnarine Chanderpaul

Vice-pesident of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Emanual Nanton says that the WICB will honour Shivnarine Chanderpaul for his sterling service to Caribbean cricket at a function and a date in the not too distant future. Chanderpaul and the WICB have been at loggerheads after he was dropped for the current series against Australia, just 86 runs short of becoming the leading Test run scorer for the West Indies.

Chanderpaul’s illustrious career came to a controversial end at the beginning of the current two Test series against Australia when he was unceremoniously dropped. Despite repeated calls for him to be included in the current series, the West Indies selectors have maintained their position.

Nanton speaking about Chanderpaul’s exit from the Test arena said:” Chanderpaul is a hero of West Indies cricket. In fact he is a hero of Caribbean civilisation whether it be cricket, music or education. Heroes of the people need to be recognised and we are looking to honour him soon.”

Nanton said the board is looking to forge a closer relation with the players and this is why they held a retreat in Barbados two weeks ago. “We are looking to get closer to the players, we see this as very important in moving forward and we will be looking to do all we can to better this aspect of West Indies cricket.”

He said the town hall meetings were also crucial in taking cricket forward. “We have these town hall meetings taking place and we are looking to see what we can take out of it. We are keeping this, not to hear what we want to hear and for people to sing our praises. We listen to what the people has to say and look to make improvements. West Indies cricket is not about (Dave) Cameron and Nanton but about the people. They all have a stake in improving our cricket and we want to hear from them.”

Nanton added that there were things working in West Indies cricket and they intend to improve on other areas in order to get the cricket back to the top.

“We are pleased with franchise cricket the young men are coming through from the franchise cricket and it is looking good so far. Look at young Shane Dowrich, he came through that and stood up and scored a very good 70 against a top bowling attack Australia. This is very encouraging for us and we are looking to build on it. I think all in all with the work that is being done currently, give us two or three years and the people of the Caribbean will be pleased.”
