Chris Dehring
Chris Dehring is the Chief Executive Officer of Cricket West Indies (CWI), known for his proactive approach to addressing the challenges posed by the rising popularity of T20 leagues. He has openly acknowledged that these franchise competitions represent a significant threat to traditional cricket in the Caribbean, as they draw players away from representing their national teams. However, Dehring emphasizes the importance of adapting to this changing landscape by finding ways to leverage the opportunities that these leagues provide. He advocates for increased private investment in the sport and believes that by improving infrastructure and creating a robust pipeline for talent development, CWI can enhance its competitive edge. His vision includes engaging in discussions with the International Cricket Council (ICC) about the future of international cricket and the need for an evolved calendar that supports both domestic and international formats.
