the great man Brian Lara made history in Antigua against England when he set the record for the highest individual Test score!

I was & am Delighted that he did it
against England ,the Bastion , of
Trickery & Intrigue .

Make absolutely no mistake ; as I have
stated several times in this Forum .

MORE CRICKET IS PLAYED OFF THE FIELD

THAN ON THE FIELD ; AND IN THIS

CRICKET ; ENGLAND HAS BEEN & IS

ALWAYS THE WINNER OR AMONG THE

WINNERS . IN THE CRICKET THAT IS

PLAYED OFF THE FIELD ; ALWAYS TO THE

DETRIMENT OF WEST INDIES CRICKET .


To illustrate the Point I am making
I invite ALL in this Forum to Find
out :

WHICH INTERNATIONAL CRICKET TEAM HAD

THE FASTEST BOWLERS IN THE WORLD

WHEN IT WAS DECIDED TO INTRODUCE THE

ONE BOUNCER PER OVER RULE IN

CRICKET ???


BTW LET ME BE PERFECTLY CLEAR IT AINT

MY INTENTION TO LET THE WORST

INTERNATIONAL CRICKET BOARD IN THE

WORLD , aka THE WICBC/CWI OFF THE

HOOK .

It was the latter's lack of fully
understanding that the Cricket Matches played off the Cricket Pitches that would eventually harm
West Indies Dominance in International Cricket .

I INVITE ALL IN THIS FORUM TO SEEK

ANSWERS TO THESE VERY IMPORTANT

QUESTIONS.

1. WHICH INTERNATIONAL CRICKET TEAM

WAS THE BEST IN THE WORLD ; WHEN

ENGLAND DECIDED TO LIMIT THE NUMBER

OF OVERSEAS PLAYERS FROM PLYING THEIR

TRADE IN ENGLAND ?????


WHICH INTERNATIONAL CRICKET TEAM WHEN

THE ABOVE HAPPENED DID NOT HAVE A

CRICKET LEAGUE ?????

The effects of what I cited above
did not happen overnight , those in the governance of West Indies Cricket
lacked the Wisdom & Foresight to fully understand , the long lasting effects of these Machiavellian decisions would ultimately affect West Indies Cricket .

Still remember that shot made off Chris Lewis to break Sir Garry's mark. Thing of beauty.

Wasn't this also Chanderpaul's first Test innings? He made something like 69 not out?
