Facilities for Cricket - Not!!!

One of the things which distresses, and embarrasses, me most, as I sometimes travel to other countries around the world to cover cricket, is the lack of proper cricketing facilities, in all aspects, here in the Caribbean

Where does West Indian cricket go from here?

After publishing my article last week, I had a very pleasant surprise indeed

Better Days are Coming for the West Indies (we hope!)

The West Indian 'Lame Duck' Management

Inadvertently, I may have started up a great hornet's nest with a very innocent interview, done two days before the start of the second Test between New Zealand and West Indies at Wellington, with the present West Indian team manager, Clive Lloyd

Do-or-Die effort needed from the West Indies

The West Indies Cricket Team: Excellence in Ineptness

One Sports Radio headline suggested: "New Zealand crush West Indies by 9 wickets." Considering the relative positions of the two teams after Day 1 of the 1st Test, this headline seems as if it came from the Twilight Zone

Day Three, The best day of the Test so far

New Zealand started the 3rd day at 113-3, with their composed captain, Steven Flemming, 18 not out overnight, and night-watchman Daniel Vettori on 5 not out, the team needing to bat well but under some pressure

What a start for the West Indies!

On the first day of this first Test match against New Zealand, Adrian Griffith, in his fourth Test, and his more seasoned partner, Sherwin Campbell, in his 35th Test, did a few things and even set some new records along the way

After the expected draw against Auckland in the last first class game before the first Test against New Zealand, Brian Lara, the West Indies captain, was very pleased about the effort, and positive about how he thinks things will go for the first
