Many here expend their energies criticising players but few spend any time on the WICBandits and their mismanagement of our cricket. Here it is we have what is supposed to be the premier cricket tournament, run by the WICBandits, and we can't even get a score. If it were not for this website, we would be in total darkness.

In reply to bobby
Well it is on tv now.
In reply to archangel
Well, even if it's on TV but no one knows about, bobby would be correct that the WICB failed to promote their own tournament.
Now, where are you watching?
In reply to Drapsey
I am in Canada.
In reply to archangel
Thanks.
In reply to archangel
It's truly amazing that you are watching it on TV in Canada and we can't even get an updated score in the Caribbean.
In reply to bobby
Sportsmax doing their best to help.
On the Bandits website all the TV feeds are off. Amazing. Truly amazing. And we wonder why people in the West Indies have lost interest.
In reply to Drapsey
Yes it is on Rogers Ch 684--thank you Drapsey
In reply to bobby
I was trying to get an end of play score on the matches on the West Indies site and I can't find it.
That is amazing.
In reply to bobby
For u dinosaurs with short hands yes...
For all others updates are sufficient on Twitter fb ig etc...
Btw quit speaking and act. U want to do something forward some sponsorship to WI cricket .
In reply to matchstick
Bullshit.
The WICBC is a big bloated organization paid handsomely to promote the business- it is their job and their job alone.
Why are folks so quick to harp on players for the slightest mishap and then these same folks absolve the WICBC of any blame and responsibility.

Really?
So you tell me that we the fans should sponsor the WICB in their quest to promote their event to us. This is the same organization whose responsibility as an entity is to develop the sport.

It seems that You have never read
any of my Posts in this Forum , because most persons in the Rum
Shop woul readiy disagree with your assessment .
BTW , I currently have a post in this
Forum . In my opinion , most of the
Ills in West Indies Cricket are caused by the rEgional BOards & the Worsty International Cricket Board in the Commonwealth , aka
the WICBC .
Allow me to again state the fact that
the Regional Boards & the WICBC
are mainly interested in Self Preservation . ALL other Matters
are secondary to that .
As I have stated in my current post
They fail to fully understand that :
TO MAKE MONEY YOU HAVE TO
SPEND MONEY , FIRST TO MAKE
OUR PLAYERS FULLY
COMPETITIVE IN THE
INTERNATIONAL CRICKET ARENA .
Obviously by doing this Cricket fans
will come in droves to see our Teams compete in the International
Cricket Arena .
Those in the WICBC & the Regional
Boards are still in their 20th century
mode , totally and blithely oblivious
to the fact that WE are living in the
21st. Century .
No doubt this is why they bluntly refuse to change their 1909 Structure ; despite the fact that ALL
the REports they have commissioned keep telling them that they need to undergo serious
Restructuring .
THey also fail to understand the fact that Financial Sponsors never
gravitate towards those at the bottom , they prefer to seek out
those at the top , so that their brand
is associating with proven Winners.
THE PEOPLE IN THE WICBC LOVE
TELLING US THAT THEY ARE
FINANCIALLY SOUND . WHAT THE
HELL GOOD IS THAT WHEN OUR
TEAM & PLAYES IN THE LONGER
VERSION OF THE GAME ARE
WALLOWING AT OR NEAR THE
BOTTOM OF INTERNATIONAL
CRICKET IN THE LONGER
VERSIONS OF THE GAME .
This fact apparently does not disturb them , never mind that they
relish trumpeting that they are
fiscally sound.
The PCL could do with some serious marketing and promotion. This is indeed the responsibility of CWI it also needs some innovation like semi coloured clothing (used in the Busta Cup days) team kits can also be sold. all matches should be day/night with the pink ball. The tournsmemt need something different to get fans in the stands
In reply to hawk
The thing is how many fans are turning up to watch Jamaica vs Leewards in their day night match at sabina park? The sad truth is that the four day game is dead in the Caribbean now.
In reply to mikesiva
I wouldnt go that far to say it is dead many are still interested as it gauges our players' readiness for test cricket. That being said it is suffering but with some creativity and marketing fans could go watch games again
In reply to mikesiva
What WE need are fully competitive
Teams in the Region , that is the
only way that the Standard in the Region is PISS POOR .
This fact is starkly demonstrated
when our Players play against other
International Teams ranked above
our TEam , in the REgion .
unfortunately this fact has not yet
dawned on those in the governance
of Cricket in the Region . They prefer instead plotting and planning
to ensure their Self Preservation
apparently this to them is priority
numero uno .
