West Indies players reprimanded for World T20 outbursts

West Indies' victorious cricketers have been reprimanded by the ICC for their actions and comments in the wake of their World T20 triumph in Kolkata earlier this month.

The team, which secured an emotional four-wicket victory in the final against England, had come close to withdrawing from the tournament before a ball had been bowled, due to a long-running contract dispute with the WICB.

In a speech on the podium in Kolkata, prior to accepting the trophy, West Indies' captain Darren Sammy turned on the board in a highly politicised speech in which he thanked his team-mates, the team's supporters and the heads of CARICOM - in particular Keith Mitchell, the Prime Minister of Grenada, who helped to broker a last-minute deal - but added that no one from the board had been in touch in spite of their team's triumph.

"People were wondering whether we would play this tournament," Sammy said during the live TV broadcast. "We had a lot of issues, we felt disrespected by our board … I'm yet to hear from [them]. That is very disappointing."

Sammy's stance was echoed by his team-mates, among them Dwayne Bravo, who went on to describe the WICB as the "most unprofessional" board in the world. The board president, Dave Cameron, Bravo added, was "immature", "small-minded" and "arrogant".

The ICC turned on the West Indies players, describing their comments as :

"inappropriate, disrespectful and [bringing] the event into disrepute".

Serious consideration, it added, had been given to levelling Code of Conduct charges

against the players, which could have resulted in fines and/or bans.
