West Indies Cricket Board (CWI) has called an emergency meeting following their embarrassing collapse against Australia in the Test match, where they were bowled out for just 27 runs in Jamaica, resulting in a 0-3 series whitewash.

 

CWI President Kishore Shallow took immediate action, inviting some of the region’s greatest former players for urgent discussions to assess the disastrous performance and plan concrete steps for improvement.

 

Country's legends Brian Lara, Clive Lloyd and Sir Vivian Richards have all been invited to share their insights. Other respected former cricketers, including Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Desmond Haynes and Ian Bradshaw, will also attend the high-level meeting.

 

“The defeat hurt me deeply, just like every West Indies fan. But this is not the time for blame — it is a test of our strength and unity. We must work together,” Shallow said while announcing the meeting.

 

He added that the session would not be a mere formality but would lead to real, practical actions to revive West Indies cricket. The focus will be on rebuilding the team’s mindset, with special emphasis on developing young players and putting the team in a strong position before the next white-ball series against Pakistan.

 

The former players are expected to offer realistic and workable recommendations, drawing on their wealth of experience to guide the struggling side back on track.
