Ottis Gibson is highly respected as a coach

Cricket West Indies have appointed former West Indies fast bowler and head coach Ottis Gibson as the new fast bowling consultant for the regional side on an initial one-year assignment.

Barbadian Gibson’s appointment comes at a critical time. With a demanding international calendar ahead, Gibson, 57, will help the region’s fast bowlers maintain peak performance, fitness, and consistency across formats.

He begins in June against Sri Lanka. He said: “I’m looking forward to working with the various coaches and the very talented group of bowlers in the Caribbean, to assist in their development across all formats of the game.”

The West Indies team’s schedule includes preparatory camps followed by the Caribbean Premier League, and away tours to India and Bangladesh.
