The Independent Voice of West Indies Cricket
In his latest online diary, Trinidad & Tobago wicket-keeper Denesh Ramdin said the Carib Beer final included a fierce bit of intimidation and sledging.
"There was rivalry between the two teams, they tried to intimidate us with a lot of sledging as well as bowling short balls at but we were disciplined enough not to fall into their traps," Ramdin said. Click here to read the full diary.
The thing about ownership is that it doesn't stop at possession. We can talk about staking claims and having the right to call something our own, but trudging along at its side is responsibility for it. A simple illustration lies in the maintenance of land.
Just because you have the deed for it doesn't give you the right to let it become an overgrown eyesore in your neighbourhood. The State can step in and order you to clean it up.

Ramnaresh Sarwan is not at all happy with the state of cricket administration in Guyana.
The West Indies vice-captain went public with his criticism of the Guyana Cricket Board, arguing that the board's priorities are misplaced. "Sadly I have to say that I do not think that 'cricket' is the priority in Guyana, unfortunately it seems as though people have other things as their priority. I think the administrators of Guyana's cricket need to get things right and put 'cricket' back as the priority," Sarwan declared in a diary entry.
