“CWI is aware that the voice notes were circulated on social media, and in sections of the regional broadcast media, suggesting that there is a rift within the West Indies Senior Men’s team,” CWI mentioned in a press launch.
“Contrary to the unsubstantiated statements, containing unfounded and mischievous state, CWI is satisfied that there is no discord between the Team Captain and any member of the West Indies team.”
Ricky Skerritt, CWI President mentioned that there is no such thing as a rift between Kieron Pollard and some other group member.
“I view this as a malicious assault on the credibility of the West Indies captain, designed to sow division inside our group that has simply recorded three very spectacular T20I performances towards very sturdy opponents, together with two excellent wins and one heroic comeback to get inside one run of victory,” he mentioned.
“This clear attempt by well-known mischief makers to discredit the Captain and to derail the Team’s momentum in the ongoing Betway T20I Series should not be tolerated or encouraged.”
West Indies lead England 2-1 within the five-match T20 International Series. The fourth T20 is scheduled to be held on Saturday adopted by the ultimate match on Sunday.
