West Indies coach breaks down T20 World Cup debacle sees head coach quit and leave role after two-Test series against Australia
RESIGNATION: Phil Simmons
West Indies, who had to enter the event in the qualifying stages for the first time, were expected to breeze past Ireland and Scotland in their four-nation group games Down Under. It came as no real surprise that following the lowest-ever ebb for the West Indies, that Simmons would step down. His final task will be the long format matches, when Australia appear to be formidable opposition, from November 30 to December 12. CWI will certainly not be anticipating that Simmons will leave with a whimper.
“From a personal perspective this is not a knee-jerk reaction, but a move I have been considering for some time. It is earlier than hoped for, but I will now focus my energies in Australia on continuing to build on the excellent progress the Test team has made.”
