The President of Cricket West Indies, Dr. Kishore Shallow, has congratulated captain Shai Hope and the regional side for their campaign at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.
Despite their exit at Eden Gardens in Kolkata against the India national cricket team, Dr Shallow praised the team’s unity and progress.
“While we are disappointed that our journey concluded at Eden Gardens in Kolkata against the India national cricket team, the tournament as a whole reflected growth, belief and togetherness. Winning five of seven matches and advancing to the Super 8s is a testament to the preparation and commitment of this group,” he said.
“Most encouraging was the spirit of resolve and fight displayed throughout the competition, a spirit that was needed more than ever. That determination and pride in representing the region strengthened confidence across the Caribbean and reminded us of the character of West Indies cricket,” the CWI President added.
He also commended head coach Daren Sammy for building a strong foundation for the future.
