Windies in crisis after pull-out
Print Edition
WEST Indies cricket faces a potentially crippling financial crisis after India yesterday suspended future visits to the Caribbean following the abandonment last week of the tour to India.
The West Indies cut short their tour last Friday because of an internal pay dispute, even though the fifth one-day international, a Twenty20 match and three Tests still remained to be played.
India retaliated by cancelling a tour scheduled for February and March 2016 to play three Tests, five one-dayers and a Twenty20 international.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), one of the richest bodies in world cricket, also said it would “initiate legal proceedings” against the West Indies but gave no details.
“All bilateral tours between BCCI and the WICB (West Indies Cricket Board) stand suspended,” BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel said yesterday.
India’s away tours usually generate huge sponsorship money for the host nation due to the country’s large cricket-viewing population.
Sri Lanka will replace the cancelled West Indian tour.
