Former Jamaican opener Delroy Morgan is one of six Territorial Talent Identifiers named by Cricket West Indies to assist with unearthing talents around the region.
Morgan is tasked with taking charge of Jamaica.
Former West Indies captain Ramnaresh Sarwan is in charge of Guyana, Samuel Spencer for the Leeward Islands, Gibran Mohammed Trinidad and Tobago, Henderson Broomes Barbados and Craige Emmanuel the Windward Islands.
The senior talent managers are Jamal Smith for men’s cricket and Ann Browne-John for women’s cricket, and with four regional scouts, they would be “managing senior player data, collaborating with analysts, and assisting in selection decisions”.
West Indies, well off the pace in both men’s and women’s international cricket in recent times, will now hope to benefit from what CWI has called a “groundbreaking, data-driven scouting system aimed at identifying and developing the best cricketing talent across the region”.
The system will involve senior talent managers, territorial talent identifiers, and a network of scouts combining “to provide a structured, analytical approach to talent identification”.
With the West Indies Championship as their first major assignment, the scouting team will ensure that every performance is tracked, analysed, and reported, creating a clear pathway for emerging cricketers to progress to the highest levels.”
