West Indies Women sack management following poor World Cup
Team only managed two wins during tournament
Cricket West Indies have announced the removal of the West Indies Women's management following a dismal World Cup performance.
Coach Vasbert Drakes and his assistants Ezra Moseley and Stuart Williams are gone after a campaign in England where they finished sixth among eight teams.
CWI hopes to set up a new management support structure ahead of the home series against Sri Lanka starting on 4 October.
In the interim, former West Indies A coach Hendy Springer will take over the role with former batsman Gus Logie set to assist him.
"The process will start with the search for a new head coach and an interim management team will be in place for the short term," the cricket board said in a statement.
West Indies only managed wins against Sri Lanka and Pakistan at the World Cup, sides that finished below them.
They also slumped to their second-lowest total in women's ODIs, when they were bowled out for 48 against South Africa.
An 18-member squad will be selected for a conditioning camp from 25 September 25 to 4 October, after which the squad for the home series will be picked.
