Mikyle’s remarkable achievement of scoring consecutive centuries, with scores of 113 and 130 on the second and third days of the tournament, speaks to his skill, dedication, and determination.
I applaud him wholeheartedly for his outstanding performance.” In his closing remarks, President Shallow stated “I wish to commend the cricket administrators in St. Kitts and Nevis, who have been pivotal in growing the sport over the years.
Amongst these is my predecessor, Mr. Ricky Skerritt, an outstanding son of the soil of St. Kitts & Nevis. He has not only served his homeland but has also served in multiple capacities in West Indies cricket, including his current role as Chairman of the Coolidge Cricket Ground – the home of West Indies cricket.
Other notable administrators are Dennis Phillip, Carlisle Powell, and Denrick Liburd.” In conclusion, Prime Minister Drew emphasized, “The Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis remains steadfast in its commitment to investing in our young people. While sports undoubtedly play a significant role in this investment, we also recognize the importance of nurturing their abilities to make positive contributions to nation-building.”
