Former presidents and officials of the West Indies Cricket Board have urged CARICOM to conduct a forensic audit of the board in order to save West Indies cricket from "absolute and total downfall".
Six former officials - Ken Gordon, Pat Rousseau, Anthony Deyal, Charles Wilkin, Bruce Aanensen and Imran Khan - have claimed that the current WICB administration under Dave Cameron has seemingly become "untouchable", and not doing anything would lead to the "inevitable demise" of cricket in the Caribbean.
"We must reinforce the message that West Indies cricket belongs to the people of the West Indies, not to the WICB," Gordon, WICB president from 2006 to 2008, said. "It may be timely to call for a forensic audit of the organisation. We need to lift the clouded veil which now surrounds that body. Answers are required and this can be a first step to return to the transparency required of a body which is a major beneficiary of regional resources and private sponsorship.

[color=rgb(0, 0, 0)][size=16px]Imran Khan, a former WICB communications officer, also felt the CARICOM's refusal to give the WICB access to certain grounds could have an impact. "Two things need to happen: mass fan boycott, and CARICOM governments refusing the WICB access to grounds which they own or control or have influence over," Khan said. "CARICOM can no longer delay taking decisive action to rescue to the regional game from the cauldron of incompetence from which it boils. To not act is to contribute to the further deterioration of the regional game and to be complicit in its inevitable demise."[/size][/color]
I dont know why everybody so quiet about it but Wavell Hinds and Dave Skunt Cameron are actually 2 of the most awful people ever to emerge in public office in the west indies...
these 2 guys in their easy, smiling, murderous, draconian, comprehensive, 'take no prisoners' dictatorship remind me of the Latin dictators..Batista and Trujillo
~ ~ I remember when-a we used to sit
in the government yard in Trenchtown.
~And then Wavell would make the fire light
as it was logwood burnin' through the night ~
~Then we would cook cornmeal porridge, of which I'll share with you ~~
