Head Coach Sammy Urges West Indies Players to Boost Earnings with Strong WTC Performances | Sports-Games
Daren Sammy said stronger World Test Championship results could help offset a 25% cut in West Indies retainer fees.
- West Indies head coach Daren Sammy challenged his players to secure a top-five finish in the World Test Championship during their final series against Bangladesh, beginning Wednesday, to unlock additional ICC prize money.
- Cricket West Indies announced last month that players would face a 25 per cent reduction in retainer fees to address the board's financial, developmental, and competitive challenges.
- The team remains unbeaten in Test series this year, beating Sri Lanka 1-0 and drawing Pakistan 1-1, while players trained at a preparatory camp in Chennai with Sriram Krishnamurthy of the Chennai Academy.
- Sammy urged players to capitalize on ten possible days of Test cricket remaining in the cycle to attract sponsors through strong performances. "The message to the guys: give it all," he said.
- The West Indies aim to improve upon their eighth-place finish in the previous two WTC cycles during this final series, with success marking a significant turnaround for the board's competitive and financial standing.
