Cricket West Indies (CWI)<\/a>. Nixon totally regrets any and all remarks made,\u201d a media release by the Falcons said on Aug. 30.<\/p>\nAfter a match against TKR, Nixon said Falcons player Justin Greaves was injured before the CPL while on West Indies duty and was unaware.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very disappointed that we\u2019ve had no communication with CWI and their back room department, (and) for Greaves to come in injured, and just before the game, we found this out,\u201d Nixon said. \u201cFor me, that is a bit unprofessional and disrespectful in a way. But we move forward.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s had an injection. That hasn\u2019t worked. I\u2019ve been a bit disappointed by how he\u2019s come back from West Indies cricket, if I\u2019m being brutally honest. The communication was poor around that. So, that\u2019s one of our international all-rounders out, which is tough.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Falcons release said, \u201cBoth Paul Nixon and the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons apologise for any unintended implications or offense these comments may have caused to CWI management and staff. We remain firmly committed to fostering a strong and collaborative partnership with CWI, one that is grounded in mutual respect and open, constructive dialogue to advance West Indies cricket.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nixon was appointed Falcons coach for the 2025 CPL season, replacing Shivnarine Chanderpaul after the team\u2019s debut campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Paul Nixon, together with team management, apologized for the comments made by the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons head…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":114063,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[81222,64,63,61240,72834,21405,81223,740,81224,47057,47058,81225,81226,47061,85,81227,79031,81228,81229],"class_list":["post-114062","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-antigua-and-barbuda-falcons","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-brian-lara-cricket-academy","tag-caribbean-premier-league","tag-cpl-2025","tag-cpl-coaching-changes","tag-cricket","tag-cricket-injury-controversy","tag-cricket-west-indies","tag-cwi","tag-justin-greaves","tag-paul-nixon","tag-shivnarine-chanderpaul","tag-sports","tag-team-management-apology","tag-trinbago-knight-riders","tag-trinidad-cricket-news","tag-west-indies-cricket-relations"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114062","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=114062"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114062\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/114063"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=114062"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=114062"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=114062"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
