Jimmy Adams appointed new West Indies director | | | 11 January 2016 West Indies turned to former batsman Jimmy Adams to help rebuild the side as he was named their new director of cricket.
Adams played 54 Test matches for the Caribbean side and will be able to draw upon from his vast experience as he turns his attention to overseeing the development of West Indies cricket at all levels. The 49-year-old returned to Jamaica after ending a five-year spell as head coach of English county side Kent last October.
He replaces Englishman Richard Pybus who had been in the position since November 2013. However, the West Indies are still without a head coach after the departure of Phil Simmons in September, just five months after their World T20 triumph. | | | |
