Despite the financial difficulties Cricket West Indies face, it will not benefit financially from the West Indies’ tour of New Zealand.
Chief Executive Officer of Cricket West Indies, Johnny Grave, confirmed on the Mason and Guest show on Tuesday that the arrangements of the tour were identical to that of the tour of England and that the staff remains on half salary.
“It will still be exactly the same terms as the England tour, the players who retain contracts whether international or the franchise levels, will still be at 50 percent of pay as of all members of staff, contractors and umpires and all our stakeholders are currently receiving 50 percent of pay since July 1,” Grave stated.
