Cricket West Indies (CWI) has been rocked with the sudden resignation of Rupert Hunter, from the role of Chief Commercial Officer (CCO).
NATION NEWS learned earlier today that the Englishman has quit the high-profile role and is set to return to the United Kingdom.
Several sources with knowledge of the situation confirmed the details and outlined that he communicated the decision to the Board of Directors of CWI and with staff at the headquarters at the Coolidge Cricket Ground in Antigua, earlier this week.
CWI has yet to confirm the news and have not issued a statement. It is not sure what led to Hunter’s resignation from the prestigious post. Earlier this month he was quoted in a media release on the unveiling of the new playing kit for the West Indies team at the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in India.
Hunter has been in the role since 2024. Before joining CWI he worked in various senior roles in the global sporting industry including in the commercial arm of the International Cricket Council (ICC). He replaced Dominic Warne, who was Commercial Director of CWI for several years. (PS)
