How must we assess Dave Cameron?

When Dave Cameron heave-hoed his former mentor Julian Hunte out of the presidency of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB), we had hoped that he would not only inspire a turnaround in the quality of the regional team, but restore the dignity of, and respect for, West Indian leadership in the global game.

Our standing has been much diminished over the last generation - the result of a laissez-faire attitude towards cricket in the region, poor performance on the field, infighting among the stakeholders of the game, and the absence of perspicacious leadership on the part of the board.

But based on the evidence of recent events, we are inclined to reassess our expectations of Mr Cameron and his colleagues in the WICB and to question their appreciation of the history of the Caribbean, the role of cricket in shaping that history, and their perspectives on the place of the region in the global environment.

Laissez faire  ??  :-\

wicb Dave is actually worse than Hunter before him.

he is a more commited and energetic arse.  he appears to actually believes in what he is doing.

in the pikin' he has already forced Cottrell and Walton on us and he believes that is principled :o :o

The writer talking about non government inclusion and insightful leaders ...... ::LOL::

Nice words.


I think Cameron and his leadership team, to include Pybus, should be fully judged after 3 years but there has to be tangible milestones every 6 months.


In the Cameron, Muirhead era we have seen them follow a model where a Director of Cricket has been appointed. IOn my view good move.


The Wilkins/ Patterson recommendations have not been implemented and that is surprising as it will mean rationalising the structure.
