PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Well-respected television broadcaster, Ian Bishop, believes it would be in the best financial interests of Cricket West Indies and regional players, to take up the England and Wales Cricket Board’s offer of the three-Test series in the United Kingdom this July.
I think that would be the death of them financially and by extension the players around the region will suffer greatly, as have most people in this country and around the world,” Bishop told i95FM Radio here.
Bishop, who played 43 Tests between 1989 and 1998, said he believed both CWI and ECB would only proceed with the tour after getting the best medical advice possible.
So for [the tour] to happen, it means they would have had to be clearance from the medical people,” said the 52-year-old.
“Nobody in the world had suspected this scenario with the pandemic to happen, no one seems to have the answers, not even the medical people whose views and discoveries are changing from month to month,” the Trinidadian pointed out.
