Shallow to decide whether he’ll resign

KINGSTOWN, St Vincent:

Cricket West Indies (CWI) President, Dr Kishore Shallow will make a decision by this weekend on whether he will step down from the position.

Dr Shallow, 41, secured a landmark victory in the North Leeward constituency in last Thursday's general elections in St Vincent and the Grenadines as a candidate for the New Democratic Party (NDP).

Led by Godwin, the NDP crushed the Unity Labour Party (ULP) by winning 14 of the 15 seats on Friday.

Dr Shallow, who was re-elected to his second term of CWI president in May 2025, said any decision regarding his tenure would be announced in the next three days.

He said it would be influenced by whether he was given a portfolio by the Prime Minister in his new Cabinet.

Dr Shallow said if he was given a portfolio which required him to invest much of his time, he would step down from his position at CWI.

"You know there's actually no conflict; there's the potential to serve both.

"Again, based on the portfolio that I am given...if I can manage both I will proceed, if not then I will have to resign," Dr Shallow said.

"But we will see how it goes. We will see within a matter of 72 hours or so, then a decision will be made."
