Listen the only winner I like is cricket…you can’t tell me seriously that this pitch is good enough for any game of cricket…imagine the poor souls who actually pay good money to be sat watching…what the heck that has to do with the Royals…just look at Azam Khan reaction just now

What kind of pitches do you want,a batsman pitch,everything is always heavily in favour of batsmen so give the bowlers a chance too.There's absolutely no problem if batsmen have to fight for runs just like having to fight for wickets.Have you noticed that Holder is still there and 130 could win the match,spectators would also enjoy excitement with small scores.

Everywhere in the world the stadia and the pitches have IMPROVED…I played top level cricket in Barbados in the 80s and 90s and our pitches have gotten worse…so let me clarify for you…the wickets in Trinidad are the worse of the lot.

Do you believe we will produce high level cricket let alone good players on these kinds of strips? Do you think that the likes of a Sinclair and Hemraj could bowl anywhere else in the world?

When we manufacture cricketers by producing substandard conditions and pitches we do them no FAVORS in the long run. They then don’t develop the real skills to play any where else…that is the real travesty.

These guys refuse to try and score singles
Either block or lag

Royals win…but cricket the loser…rain aplenty and the wicket as dry as a bake…these dirt patches have no place in high level cricket

TT has produced the greatest ever who this stadium is named after, what a travesty.

Just think of some of them trying to clear the boundary ropes of probably: 59.2 and 92.3 meters in Australia.

It won’t matter what happens on the field, the Trinis will be packed in at a party.

Aussie land will always produce cricketers…nothing personal but TT had produced the least high level batsmen in the West Indies despite producing arguably the greatest…the cricket skills of our players are lacking…there i said it for you…but these TT pitches everytime.

If that pitch was what you wanted and got, and TKR had won,you and the rest would still be moaning,and yuh know why,TKR won.
Everyone may even start to grumble about Narine pelting but not about Green,that is West Indian for you,we pretend we are all one.

You are going back into history now and plainly you have an agenda or agendas.

I don’t have a clue what you talking about…Narine and several Tits play and have had successful careers all over the world. I don’t ever comment on any of them or TKR. That franchise has been the most successful I believe.

I comment on the fact we will do a disservice to Trinadians and other West Indians who play if we produce these dirt patches…the end.

If I don’t see anything better at Providence, I will say the same.

History is made of the past and the present and also dictates the future if we are not prepared to change.

Providence is barely better than this, if at all

I’ve seen the most recent international matches but I will reserve judgement… no one can tell me this is good enough.

Providence has the worse team totals of all the grounds

Lara played ok in years past and even in the regional and intl games
