Former West Indies skipper and two-time T20 World Cup champion Daren Sammy has been appointed as the head coach of the national team in all formats of the game.

From April, 2025, he will also take charge of the Test team.

He has been the head coach of the white-ball team since May 2023.

The former all-rounder will replace Andre Coley as the Test head coach after the end of West Indies’ current World Test Championship cycle.

West Indies are currently last in the WTC25 standings, with a 24.24% point percentage and are out of contention for the finale at Lord’s next year, read the ICC website.

West Indies will play a two-match series against Pakistan next.

"It’s an honour to represent the West Indies in any capacity and with the new role he has mapped out the new direction," Sammy said at a press conference following the announcement as quoted by the ICC website.
