Ricky Skerritt: West Indies' on-field results will get better, but we must learn from our mistakes

The West Indies will stage an ICC event for the first time since the 2018 women's T20 World Cup while the USA is set to host a global tournament for the first time. In this chat with Sportstar, Cricket West Indies president Ricky Skerritt, part of ICC's hosting sub-committee, explains why the USA was chosen as co-host for the 2024 men's T20 World Cup, the impact of Covid-19 pandemic on CWI, and the challenges facing Caribbean cricket. Sadly, some regional decision-makers and pundits still believe today that all West Indies needs to do is to select ‘their’ right players and to hire the ‘right’ foreign coach. But West Indies cricket needs to change from a culture that has propagated waste, negativity and decline, to one which produces excellence, pride and togetherness.
