Barbados Youth invincible! Barbados Royals weak!

Barbados Youth are doing well, Graham and the young 14year old Harding are at schools in the UK, the u17 captain Bowens will be going to sixth form in the UK from September.

I have not followed CPL.

The rest of the region is simply much better outside of the youth level.

There can be no other explanation.

Some ideas are being talked about, with the development of players.
Courtney Browne spoke about one yesterday.
Our players are playing fewer than ten matches a year at all levels. Instead of waiting for regional tournaments, junior and senior teams can travel to England, SA and, having a group of former cricketers living in Australia, arrange tours annually to these countries.
Franklyn Stephenson Academy spent several summers touring SA and England; the tours were reciprocal.

because deliveries bowled at 125/130 kmph don't get batsmen out unless you're very skillful
