KINGSTOWN, St Vin­cent – Crick­et West In­dies (CWI) pres­i­dent, Dr Kishore Shal­low, will make a de­ci­sion by this week­end on whether he will step down from the po­si­tion.

Dr Shal­low, 41, se­cured a land­mark vic­to­ry in the North Lee­ward con­stituen­cy in last Thurs­day’s gen­er­al elec­tions in St Vin­cent and the Grenadines as a can­di­date for the New De­mo­c­ra­t­ic Par­ty (NDP).

Led by God­win Fri­day, the NDP crushed the Uni­ty Labour Par­ty (ULP) by win­ning 14 of the 15 seats.

Dr Shal­low, who was re-elect­ed to his sec­ond term as CWI pres­i­dent in May 2025, said any de­ci­sion re­gard­ing his tenure would be an­nounced in the next three days.

He said it would be in­flu­enced by whether he was giv­en a port­fo­lio by the Prime Min­is­ter in his new Cab­i­net.

Dr Shal­low said if he was giv­en a port­fo­lio which re­quired him to in­vest much of his time, he would step down from his po­si­tion at CWI.

“You know, there’s ac­tu­al­ly no con­flict; there’s the po­ten­tial to serve both.

“Again, based on the port­fo­lio that I am giv­en…if I can man­age both, I will pro­ceed; if not, then I will have to re­sign,” Dr Shal­low said.

“But we will see how it goes. We will see with­in a mat­ter of 72 hours or so, then a de­ci­sion will be made.”
