Trinidad considering cricket split from West Indies

Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board (TTCB) chief executive Forbes Persaud said leading figures in the country's cricket body are considering breaking away from the West Indies.

The West Indies cricket team has united the islands of the Caribbean for over a century, however along with Barbados and Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago has been one of the traditional powerhouses of the region’s cricket.

"My personal view [is] if the trend continues with the manner in which West Indies cricket is being administered, the board [TTCB] should go on its own and compete as Trinidad and Tobago, just as is in football," Persaud told the Trinidad and Tobago Express.
