AS THE EVER UPBEAT president of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Dave Cameron sees it, the annual meeting of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in Barbados at the end of the week “demonstrates the significant role West Indies cricket continues to play in the global game”.

The distressing reality is that it hasn’t played “a significant role in the global game” since the unprecedented dominance of the 1980s in teams under Clive Lloyd and Viv Richards; it is unlikely to do as long as a revival continues to be hindered by performances on the field and in the boardroom.

Every ICC member is keen for the West Indies to regain their strength.

When will the penny drop?

How the Hell can West Indies Cricket be in the focus of the International Cricket Cabal , aka the ICC ; when for many years it has allowed the WICB to become a ROUGUE CRICKET BOARD ?????????????????????????

I have absolutely no doubt that the people in the International Cricket Cabal , are fully aware of the Lucky
Report ; the Patterson Report ; & the
Wilkin Report .

Yet despite these Reports there has been absolutely no improvement in the Rogue Cricket BOARD , for many years , the International Cricket Cabal has ignored the behavior of the Worst International Cricket Board in the World .

Saying that the ICC is concerned about West Indies Cricket is a cruel Farce . Having a strong West Indies team aint in the best Interest of those at the top of International Cricket . So trying to give the impression that they care is simply
a lot of B.S , and Cameron is well aware of that fact .
