Snorting and pawing at the ground

Fresh from his feats in the IPL in South Africa, West Indies' spearhead is raring to take a crack at the rest of the world. "We want to take the trophy back home," he says

Planning, the Windies way

Chris Gayle's stated lack of interest in the traditional form of the game has obviously been adopted as the team mantra

25-May-2009•Fazeer Mohammed

Searching for consolation

West Indies now find themselves in another bilateral ODI series, seeking compensation for a thrashing in the two Tests, both lost by embarrassing margins

22-May-2009•Tony Cozier

Switching colours, switching hits

He's got all the shots and then some, and now he's got a bigger, better platform to showcase them on

21-May-2009•Andrew McGlashan

An embarassing defeat

The defeat in the second Test, completed quarter-hour after lunch yesterday, was as swift, embarrassing and emphatic and brought about by the same factors as those at Headingley in 2000 and 2007

Last chance to overcome adversity

It's the first time since England put them back in at the Queen's Park Oval and Sabina in the 1968 series in the Caribbean that West Indies have followed on in successive Tests

The value of the hard yards

Sometimes runs and wickets can come a little too easily. It has been the occasional passages of play that have pushed England which have had the most value

17-May-2009•Andrew McGlashan at Chester-le-Street

A worrying trend

West Indies depend hugely for their wickets on Fidel Edwards

Harker hits out at Test bidding system

As the rain fell on a miserable second day at Chester-le-Street it provided an apt backdrop to a game that has reignited the debate about Test cricket's future. Even if the sun had shone, it's unlikely the ground would have been even half full with punter

15-May-2009•Andrew McGlashan at Chester-le-Street

A bore revisited

The pitch was as bare as any in the preceding matches in the tropical Caribbean and just as heartbreaking for the bowlers

15-May-2009•Tony Cozier at Chester-le-Street

Bopara credits Gooch for Test success

Chris Gayle is not enthralled by Test cricket, but for Ravi Bopara it holds a special place - and that's coming from a player who can also be assured of making a fortune in the Twenty20 game

14-May-2009•Andrew McGlashan at Chester-le-Street

Amber lights at the Riverside

Chris Gayle has said that he wasn't looking to remain the West Indies captain for a long period of time and would be "giving it up shortly" because of the pressure the job entailed

13-May-2009•Andrew McGlashan at Chester-le-Street

Sloppy catching lets Windies down...again

The opening day of the first Test was transformed from one of promise to one of disappointment, if not despair, by a flurry of missed catches after tea

07-May-2009•Tony Cozier

Shades of Hussain as Bopara arrives

The following scenario may sound familiar. England are at a low ebb after a desperate winter campaign, and a new coach decides it's time to take a punt with one of the most problematic positions in the side

06-May-2009•Andrew Miller at Lord's

Bopara creates a momentum of his own

The momentum that carried Ravi Bopara to his second Test century was entirely unconnected to the fortunes (or lack thereof) of the England team - which is precisely why he was called into the side in the first place

06-May-2009•Andrew Miller at Lord's

Walsh hopeful for new generation

When Courtney Walsh walked off The Oval arm-in-arm with his fellow fast-bowling destroyer Curtly Ambrose in 2000, West Indies had all but relinquished their long hold on the Wisden Trophy

06-May-2009•Andrew McGlashan

West Indies must make use of long warm-up

West Indies cricketers better be down to business from ball one this morning in Leicester if they are to make the most of the busiest lead-in to a Test series away from home for nine years
