Selection panel is an autonomous body

Dave Cameron

A former Cricket West Indies (CWI) official has sided with current CWI Director, Azim Bassarath in criticizing the board’s President Dave Cameron  for his statement that the board would consider excluding Trinidad and Tobago’s Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard and Darren Bravo from future selection for the West Indies.

The three cricketers are at the centre of a storm of criticism in some cases and support in others for opting to ply their trade in the Pakistan Super League instead of representing the West Indies in their all-important ICC World Cup qualifying competition.

“I don’t know how that works to exclude players,” the former CWI official, who preferred not to be named, told Stabroek Sport.
