Former Cricket West Indies President, Dave Cameron has called for more responsibility and accountability from stakeholders, including the players.
Cameron was speaking on the Voice of Barbados program “Mason & Guest” recently.
“I want to blame the directors and the entire cricket structure for former coach Richard Pybus’ dismissal because the strategy we had embarked on was signed-off by all the directors including those who took over,” stated Cameron.
“And so, I was very surprised when we changed the entire structure, including stopping agitating for changes at the ICC, to the financial structure; so we have what we have today. There is enough blame to go around as to why, but we need to figure out where we go from here because I don’t watch it, I really don’t watch cricket anymore,” he added.
Cameron initially said in the interview that “it so not the players’ fault because I don’t think the players know or understand what is required.” He said it had to be the persons who are in charge to ensure the players are ready for battle. “And I don’t think the players are ready for battle.”
The ex-CWI president said all the performance issues were related to persons who are in place and are not held accountable.
“If persons were accountable, then we would simply move them on. For example, there has been a lot of talk about fitness levels of players, not just fitness but medical issues. What is being done?”
“We hired prior to 2017 a doctor who is accountable to the system and I don’t see anywhere in the CWI or any conversations that doctor still performs those duties,” said Cameron
