THE APPOINTMENT of a new West Indies team manager isn’t moving at the fast pace of the man who has been identified for the job.
Whereas media reports have indicated that former Test fast bowler Joel Garner is to be appointed to the post, West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) chief executive officer Michael Muirhead yesterday said the WICB has not issued a media release to that effect.
“We are still working out some contract details with the person and at the appropriate time, we would be making an announcement,” Muirhead said.
“As you know, until they sign on the dotted line, anything can happen in contract negotiations,” Muirhead added.
To this end, Muirhead said a new manager won’t be with the regional team for the start of the upcoming four-Test series against India in the Caribbean. (EZS)
