West Indian cricket legends, including Garry Sobers (in pic) and Vivian Richards have demanded the "dissolution" of WICB and a formation of an interim board in place of the "obsolete" body.
On April 14, converging under the umbrella banner of Cricket legends, Sobers and Richards, accompanied by Wes Hall and Andy Roberts, met with Grenada premier Keith Mitchell, chairman of the Prime Ministerial Committee on the Governance of West Indies Cricket, which appointed the CARICOM cricket review panel in the wake of the crisis that emerged following the West Indies' withdrawal from India's tour in October 2014.
"During the last two decades, many different presidents and CEOs have led the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and yet, its performance has declined steadily with each passing year," the legends said in a media release.
The legends' wish-list included immediate resignation of all current WICB directors, establishment of an interim board, and formation of a new board structure, among others.
The five-member review panel comprising Murray, V Eudine Barriteau, Sir Dennis Byron, Dwain Gill and Warren Smith concluded its report on October 15, in which it described the WICB as "obsolete".
