WI president reprimands BCA’s president

Cricket West Indies President Dr. Kishore Shallow has reprimanded Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) President Conde Riley over “serious breach of trust” and bringing “the entire CWI organisation into disrepute.”

In a strongly worded letter to Riley, Shallow outlined several issues, which he said reflected poorly on the Bajan’s stewardship.

Shallow described the appearance of Riley on the Mason and Guest radio show on Sept. 26 when he claimed that Barbados had been awarded the rights by the International Cricket Council to host the final of the 2024 T20 Cricket World Cup as the most regions.

The World Cup is being held in the West Indies and USA, with Barbados, Trinidad and Guyana reportedly vying to host the final. However, no announcement has been made by the ICC or CWI about the venue for the final.

A clearly upset Shallow told Riley, “Your inaccurate public statement that a letter from the ICC to the BCA advising that Kensington Oval had been awarded the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 final not only misled the public but also constituted a serious breach of the trust placed in you as a CWI director. Such actions not only reflect poorly on your personal integrity but also bring the entire CWI organization into dispute.”

Shallow urged Riley to familiarise himself with Article 51 of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of CWI and the Code of Ethics for the board of directors.

Shallow added, “This letter is issued with the expectation that you receive it with due gravity, CWI is an organization with sterling reputation, and as directors, we must act responsibly, in good faith and to maintain the best interest of CWI. Our collective actions must consistently uphold the highest standards of CWI.”
