Never one to mince words, the Master Blaster takes aim at the WICB and players alike in a report from Australia's Herald Sun

"Some of our players today don't seem too sure who or what they are representing. Even though the board is not behaving well they must still have personal pride," he is quoted as saying.

On the subject of funding for West Indies cricket he draws a barbed comparison with "you have to know what Robert Mugabe is like in Zimbabwe, do you pump money into an establishment where the money doesn't filter through?".

I wonder if Viv thought about the 'thing' he cuss Tait for when he was part of an establishment that 'encouraged' the same thing?

Ironic, it seems to me.

Viv made it clear last week what he thought about the money the modern day guys are making. I don't understand why he keeps counting people's money.

Sorry if i have come over as being as blunt as he is. big grin

Is Viv Equating WICB's Management to Mugabe's Management by any chance?
