The Independent Voice of West Indies Cricket
@powen001
What a remarkable innings by Justin Greaves!!!!!!
Over the years in life and cricket,I have seen many things I never thought I would see. I have witnessed extraordinary things from ordinary people.I have seen people do things that I never thought they could do, based on what they had done before.Yet I still used to limit what people could achieve based on their past performance.
All that went away when I achieved something I never thought I could achieve.I then realized that one must never limit your ambitions and you have to possess self-belief and determination to accomplish whatever it is you want out of your life.
GO WEST INDIES!!!!!!!!!!
@Dukes
Thought he was so underrated. Yes I love all-rounders and wicketkeepers are included in my all-rounder category.
@Dukes
And Dukes...Imusic spotted Greaves potential years ago...
He came through today and I am exceedingly proud.
Musicman always as on Greaves and correctly so. Bajan selectors saw him as mainly a bowling option because they are blind to batting talent. For that matter if you weren't KB, Brooks, Chase, Dowrich etc. you cannot bat but glad Greaves, Meyers, Springer and Shaqkere Parris made it out and got the time at the wicket to make names for themselves.
Sorry guys like L Boucher, and Jonathan Drakes had to sit around and wait to play with guys underperforming and only now getting some regional games under their belts
@seaegg99
Greaves was competing with Carlos, Jason and Mayers as an allrounder, as a batsman he was up against Brooks, Kyle Hope and Kyle Corbin who were performing at the local and regional level.
Drakes and Boucher are now performing as they are in their 30s, Springer was never fit for many years. Young Parris should be in the team as well as young Depieza.

We are not starved for Talent.
What I fear happens is how , on too many occasions - said young talent is left frustrated and sadly at times, discouraged.
The difference is mental fortitude - and the young talented ones -Have to KEEP WANTING IT!
funny how only yesterday I thought of Jofra Archer...and was thankful of his blood connections to England...or we may never have heard about him at the highest level.
We are not starved for talent... what we may lack is proper sustainable structure that leaves no one behind.
It is not as easy as we may think but it does need attention.
