Windies set for tough work ahead

Mon, Feb 2, '09
The West Indies Team is promising to be tough and competitive when they face England in the 1st Digicel Test Match at Sabina Park. This is according to Head Coach John Dyson as the team prepared for their training session on Monday afternoon.

"The team can take a lot out of the New Zealand series which we played late last year and earlier this year. We played hard and we had a very good team spirit. We are really looking forward to this series against England," Dyson said. "There are no easy teams around in world cricket. All series are going to be hard, but as always if our guys play as well as I know we can, they can come out of the series looking pretty good. I believe the series will be very competitive."
