Samuels had said that since he was not accredited with the West Indies Players Association, he wanted to focus on finishing the India tour before raising any objections concerning the contract and memorandum of understanding signed between the WIPA and the WICB.
"Wavell Hinds cannot negotiate on behalf of me so I know that once I continued (to play) I just needed to finish this tour and then I would have asked questions," Samuels, the first player to speak out about the controversial decision taken by the players, was quoted as saying by the local media.
"The main thing first was West Indies cricket, that is why I remained focussed throughout everything," he had said. Bravo said he was "shocked" at the claims made by Samuels. He said Samuels contributed vigorously to the discussions held.
