Foreign Coach :

www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/766351.html

In its first year, CPL used icons from the golden age of West Indies cricket -

Sir Viv Richards, Sir Andy Roberts, Gordon Greenidge and Desmond Haynes - as head coaches.

They have now been designated "mentors", a none-too-subtle difference.

The only combination that remains the same is the West Indian pairing of :

Roger Harper and Sir Curtly Ambrose with the Guyana Amazon Warriors. ...

The Englishman Paul Nixon was the only foreign coach last year.

His Jamaica Tallawahs took the title.

He has been replaced by Mickey Arthur, one-time national coach of his native South Africa

and of Australia.

no coaching werk for unemployed legends ::confused::

Yeah , unless you are the contacted 6 ...

I think there is nothing wrong in bringing in foreign coaches. Quality coaching will have a trickle down effect on the players as well as other support staff involved in the CPL. I have seen first hand the positive effects of the IPL on Indian domestic payers as well as domestic coaches. Hope to see the West Indies back to their glory years soon.

[color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]WICB is the reason for llack of home grown coaches in the west indies.Also,i really don't understand why everyone keeps calling for Viv or curtly to become coaches.Agreed they are great players,but they really can't make another set of "great" players.I do hate otis Gibson,bu he is the best choice for now..
