CWI confirms Hunter’s resignation
Cricket West Indies (CWI) has finally confirmed the departure of Rupert Hunter from its staff. Nation News published last week that the Englishman had stepped down from the post of Chief Commercial Officer and returned to the United Kingdom (UK). Reliable sources with knowledge of developments in regional cricket indicated he conveyed his decision with staff and with the Board of Directors at the headquarters in Antigua.
Chris Dehring the CEO of CWI, spoke on the matter on Tuesday night and outlined that Hunter is no longer with the organisation. He did not indicate if the regional governing body would soon commence the search to replace Hunter in the crucial high-level post. Dehring said: “Rupert has resigned and he’s heading back to be with his family in the UK. So, we wish him well and thank him for the work he has done in West Indies cricket.”
Hunter has been in the role since October, 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.
