Cream does not linger to rise to the top.

Well, unless we are talking about skim milk.

😀😀😀

The West Indies cricket side is populated with skim milk.

Unless we recognise that our players are not equipped with the requisite skills to play international cricket, the more we remain in limbo.

You cannot solve a problem without first identifying it and take corrective action.

Our guys are simply not good enough.

We are attempting to make bricks without straw.

This is West Indies cricket for you.

...pure buffoonery.

............................

Coming to think about it, how do we measure success in the context of West Indies cricket?

I am not about to play the role of proverbial ostrich while Nero fiddles while Rome burns.

Aren't you tired of these mediocre cricket performances from top to bottom, which have existed from time immemorial?

CWI by now should know that our players are not up to international standards and therefore the next logical step is how do we develop strategic imperatives to ge our players to international level within the shortest possible time?

"This is basic Harry"...why is it taking over 35 years to get this basic thing right?

Hey watch out deh! Men soon run come tell yuh it took many innings and 4yrs for The Greatest to reach 3 figures and it was 365. This current WI team is full 'o Gary Sobers😃

@Brerzerk

Well, if any of the current crop of West Indies cricketers start their career as bowlers, I am quite willing to wait for them to take 4 years to morph into the greatest modern day cricketer.

I think it will be worth the wait.

As somebody with maroon blood in his veins i dunno how much more of dis i can tek ....when is enuff enuff ?....how much more of the egomaniac that is Darren Sammy we have to endure ?....i believe he genuinely has Windies cricket at heart but at best he's nothing more than a hand-clapping motivator ...in Gt terms a big bluff!!

@CCW

Fundamentally, we need a high gear shift in West Indies cricket.

Yagga, it's time to jump ship. Please do not endorse this shit.
