Former opening batsman and Test great Desmond Haynes was appointed lead selector for West Indies on Thursday.
The 65-year-old Barbadian will lead the selection panel until June 30, 2024, a period that includes two T20 World Cups, the 2023 Cricket World Cup and World Test Championship Final.
Haynes played in 116 tests, scoring 7,487 runs, and 238 one day internationals for West Indies between 1978 and 1994. He won the World Cup in 1979 and captained the side in four Tests.
“Being a selector is a thankless task, but a critical role in our cricket system and I am honoured to be appointed,” he said in a statement.
