INCUMBENT President of Cricket West Indies Dr Kishore Shallow is still unsure about seeking re-election at the upcoming election in March.
This comes as regional cricket boards prepare to elect a head of the CWI board in March of this year at their annual general meeting

According to Shallow, “When the time is right, I will make that decision. I’m considering it, I’m open to going on for another term, it is something I will obviously decide when I have finished my consultation with the other directors and if the support is there and the desire is there for me to continue, then I’m committed.’
Shallow, who is an active politician in his native St Vincent, says he counts as a success, being able to realise long overdue reforms to the governance of the game regionally.

It’s a great accomplishment, I’m sure it will inspire confidence the stakeholders have in Cricket West Indies. As an organisation, we have to remain committed to evolving in every aspect, governance reform is only one but this [is] certainly promising and great progress.”
The CWI boss poured cold water on the division within the board and says they will work together, speaking specifically to the Guyana Cricket Board and Barbados Cricket Board’s recent issues.

“I’m happy that both BCA and GCB reps were present and they participated in the exercise. We had great conversation and discussion around governance and other cricket-related matters and be able to ventilate matters as a board, as shareholders that is really great, we are quite pleased as an entire board, quite pleased with this development.”

The special meeting saw a number of reforms tabled and approved, including introduction of a term limit of a maximum of three terms of three years each for the positions of President and Vice-President.
The meeting also saw the increase of the term of the President and Vice President from two years to three years.
