JOEL “BIG BIRD” GARNER is looking to fly even higher.
The towering former West Indies fast bowler and current Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) president is going after the position of vice-president of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB).
When nominations for the top two positions closed last Friday, Garner, a WICB director over varying periods including the last six years, was one of two candidates put up for the No. 2 position.
Garner, 60, will face a challenge from Dominican Emmanuel Nanthan, the president of the Windward Islands Cricket Board of Control.
