West Indian cricket is not helped by the fact that Caribbean pitches recently tend to be skewed in favour of the visitors' skills, says Alan Harris, writing in the Barbados Advocate.
Though not equipped with the elegance, style and maybe talent as many of the other international cricket teams of this era, the Darren Sammy-led Caribbean outfit is trying their best.

His name is ‘Caribbean pitches’ and he rears his ugly head when the West Indies can least afford it – during Home Series.
