Caribbean Air­lines ben­e­fit­ed great­ly from West In­dies crick­et in the past five years. Crick­et West In­dies Pres­i­dent Dr Kishore Shal­low was de­liv­er­ing the fea­ture ad­dress at the Trinidad and To­ba­go Crick­et Board awards at the Na­tion­al Cy­cling Cen­tre on Sun­day (Oc­to­ber 5) when he said crick­et and sports, by ex­ten­sion, have and will con­tin­ue to ben­e­fit gov­ern­ments and busi­ness­es across the Caribbean.

Shal­low said, “Your own Caribbean Air­lines, on av­er­age over the last five years, has earned an­nu­al­ly US $5 mil­lion dol­lars from Crick­et West In­dies.”

De­spite this, he lament­ed that the air­line has not giv­en back to the sport. “We haven’t en­joyed the ben­e­fit of a part­ner­ship with Cal, not even a spon­sor­ship for your pro­gramme. But that is just one ex­am­ple of how the cor­po­rate com­mu­ni­ty ben­e­fits from Crick­et and Crick­et West In­dies.”

Dr Shal­low, who hand­ed out awards to win­ners, in­clud­ing Ja­son Mo­hammed, who was named Na­tion­al Crick­eter of the Year, praised the na­tion­al and ter­ri­to­r­i­al boards for the hard work they have been do­ing ad­min­is­tra­tive­ly.

Shal­low not­ed the re­gion­al board is look­ing to work with the boards to ad­vance West In­dies crick­et fur­ther.

“Through our strate­gic plan 2024 to 2027, we are com­mit­ted to work­ing hand-in-hand with every sin­gle ter­ri­to­r­i­al board, every sin­gle club through the ter­ri­to­r­i­al boards, so that we can con­tin­ue to cre­ate op­por­tu­ni­ties, strength­en struc­tures, and put in place sys­tems to en­sure a sus­tain­able and com­pet­i­tive fu­ture of crick­et in the Caribbean,” Shal­low said.

Among those ho­n­oured at the cer­e­mo­ny, Jay­den Seales, who led the West In­dies at­tack with 27 wick­ets from sev­en Tests be­tween No­vem­ber last year against Bangladesh and In­dia last week, with an av­er­age of 20.39, was named In­ter­na­tion­al Crick­eter of the Year.

On the women’s side, Kar­ish­ma Ramharack was named the In­ter­na­tion­al Crick­eter of the Year, while Lee-Ann Kir­by was named the Pre­mier­ship Play­er of the Year. Sha­nia Au­gus­tus was named the Cham­pi­onship Play­er of the Year.

Wood­land Sports Club was named the Club of the Year.

Na­tion­al Un­der-19 crick­eter and for­mer na­tion­al Un­der-17, and Un­der-15 cap­tain, Bren­don Boodoo, was named Best Youth Play­er.
