Thanks..Enjoyed it very much..and yes, it would be good if some current or upcoming players absorb the
insights and knowledge that Shiv has given.. Wonderful info. Glad he is enjoying his life too in his casual
and humble way.smile

Yes, enjoyable to hear his thoughts and get a glimpse into his journey

Never thought I would see a long-winded Shiv. Is he getting into politics?

Why is this guy not part of CWI's coaching structure?
He should be the Head coach at the academy.
I enjoyed that interview.

Is it THAT simple?

Viv, Walcott, Kanhai, Wes, Clive, Macco, and to a lesser extent Haynes, all held a position of authority and influence and could not prevail against the WI cricket institution in its current form!

Greatman has come a far way off the cricket field

the WI cricket institution in its current form!

Correct is right
CWI, a private entity, is accountable to no one in the region.
And it is satisfied to grovel to ICC for handouts.
Many current and former players are treated like dawgs

His take on T20 batting I agree with. Power hitter with subset of batting talent, versus what's needed to excel in Tests.
