Sir Andy: More heartbreak headed West Indies way
Tue, Aug 16, '16
Former West Indies fast bowler Sir Andy Roberts said the regional squad will continue to lose matches until their approach to the game changes.
His statement comes on the heels of the team’s humiliating 237-run defeat against India in the third Test in St Lucia on Saturday.
“If you’re a struggling team, you don’t try to draw matches, you try to win matches. And if you go out with a defeatist, defensive, attitude it’s going to show throughout your entire cricket, and that is how we have been playing,” Sir Andy said.
“Look at the first morning of the Test match when you win the toss and put the opposition in to bat, but you start without a short-leg and what sense is that? So, we are always playing from behind. It seems as though now, West Indies don’t know how to lead,” he added.
