England bowling guru Ottis Gibson has been recruited by West Indies to take over as the country's new head coach.
Gibson, who has worked with the Three Lions since September 2007, will take over from interim coach David Williams for the tour of Zimbabwe later this month.
West Indies Cricket Board chief executive Ernest Hilaire also revealed Gibson, who played just two Tests and 15 ODIs for the Windies, will take responsibility for and oversee coaching right across all of the country's representative cricket teams.
"Ottis will begin his appointment from the start of the home series against Zimbabwe," Hilaire told CBC Radio.
"I think we need to take Ottis' appointment in stride. He will be the head coach of the WICB, and not just head coach of the senior team. He will have responsibility for coaching right across all of our representative cricket teams."
