Cricket West Indies implemented structural reforms after emergency talks in August following consecutive losses. The organization announced changes on Friday after consulting former players Brian Lara and Clive Lloyd alongside current team leadership and coaching staff.

The committee identified fitness standards and coaching deficiencies as primary concerns. Officials approved measures to hire an international batting instructor and deploy a full-time sports psychologist while upgrading women's team support positions to permanent roles.

Short-term improvements target the Coolidge Cricket Ground facility with enhanced training equipment and medical infrastructure. Franchise organizations must submit development strategies and maintain performance benchmarks as administrators launch a regional fitness tracking system.

Long-term plans establish a unified framework connecting youth programs through elite pathways. The High-Performance Centre in Antigua will serve as the regional training headquarters while officials pursue increased International Cricket Council funding and private partnerships to support academy expansion for players aged 11 through 18.
