Simmons is hoping to use his knowledge of the conditions in the Caribbean and pass it on to Papua New Guinea's players during their second appearance at the T20 World Cup.
“As a player internationally, for fourteen years and then as an international coach for eighteen years it’s been a long time in the game.
It’s always brilliant to come home, always brilliant to come back to any part of the West Indies you know how beautiful it is here.
"I’m looking forward to getting home, home which is Trinidad.
Having people come here, me getting back here, it’s always a great thing, it’s always something to look forward to.”
