Former West Indies captain Ramnaresh Sarwan has resigned as the selector of men’s senior and junior teams with immediate effect, Cricket West Indies (CWI) announced.
Robert Haynes, who is the current Lead Selector of the Men’s Youth Selection Panel and former interim Chairman of Selectors, will act as a replacement until a suitable full-time candidate is appointed. Robert will work on the Selection Panel alongside Senior Men’s Team Lead Selector Desmond Haynes and Head Coach Phil Simmons.
CWI Director of Cricket Jimmy Adams thanked Ramnaresh for his contributions during his appointment, saying, “Given the depth of his experience in the game, we are disappointed that Ramnaresh is unable to continue in the role of Selector, but we fully understand and accept his reasons. We are grateful for his contribution during the period he was involved and hope that he will be able to contribute to West Indies Cricket in some capacity in the future.”
