Sarwan feels NEPOTISM played a role in appointment of new West Indies Coach
Guyanese Ramnaresh Sarwan who represented the West Indies in 287 International matches between May 2020 to June 2013 feels Daren Sammy’s appointment as West Indies Head Coach ahead of Guyana’s Shivnarine Chanderpaul reeks of insularity.
The 42-year-old disclosed that Chanderpaul is fully qualified with a level III (3) certificate while Sammy has almost zero coaching qualifications.
The former Guyana and West Indies Captain added that shockingly, Darren Sammy was confirmed as coach.

“How is this possible?” he asked
“Is it because Chanderpaul is a Guyanese and Sammy is from Windward Islands? Sarwan wondered.
This is Sarwan’s full Facebook comment:
‘Twenty (22) persons / coaches were interviewed for the white ball coaching position. However, two (2) were shortlisted. The big question is why were the other twenty (20) persons / coaches not made known to CWI directors, and also, why is this a big secret and is being kept away from cricketing public?

In the interest of transparency, those names should have been made available, at least to directors of CWI.
The two coaches shortlisted by the President (headed) committee were Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Darren Sammy.
Chanderpaul is fully qualified with a level III (3) certificate.
Sammy, almost zero coaching qualifications.

SHOCKINGLY, Darren Sammy confirmed as coach. How is this possible?
The President has a professional and moral obligation to the Caribbean people and, without delay, make public the criteria / method used for the selection of the coach.
Is it because Chanderpaul is a Guyanese and Sammy is from Windward Islands?
If not, WHAT IS IT?
I was always aware West Indies cricket has insularity but what is becoming very prominent with this administration is NEPOTISM.
Wonder who is the front runner to replace Mr Adams?
TAKE A GUESS! MORE TO COME” posted Sarwan who will a guest on the ‘Sean Devers Sports Watch’ radio programme next Tuesday night.
