Calls for increased term limits for CWI president

September 2, 2024

Antigua’s Minister of Sport Daryll Matthew believes the time has come for Cricket West Indies to increase the term limit of its president to four years.

Speaking during CWI’s quarterly media conference, Matthew said the current two-year term was insufficient for any president to adequately make any major changes during his tenure.

Minister Matthew told CWI President Dr. Kishore Shallow that while he was impressed with what he had been able to achieve since being elected in March last year, two years were simply not enough time for him to achieve all of his goals.

Additionally, Matthew contends a four-year term would bring CWI in line with similar sporting organisations around the world.

However, the Antigua Sports Minister said he understood the challenges Dr. Shallow would face if he sought to increase the term limit while being president.
