READ YOUR EMAILS!
That’s the message from West Indies’ director of cricket Richard Pybus to West Indies’ coach Phil Simmons and captain Darren Sammy.
After the West Indies defeated England to capture the World Cup Twenty20 title, an emotional Sammy said while he received support and congratulatory messages from the CARICOM Heads of Government, he was yet to hear from the West Indies Cricket Board.
Similar sentiments were expressed by Simmons, in an interview with the ESPN cricinfo website on Wednesday.
But Pybus said that he personally sent congratulatory emails to the captains, coaches and managers of both the men’s and women’s teams.
“After the semi-final victories, I wrote the captains, coaches and managers of the two teams, congratulating them on the victories in the semi-finals and wishing them success in the final,” Pybus said. (EZS)
