West Indies cricketers are all style and flair ?

IB: I do not quite agree that West Indies cricketers are all style and flair.

We have been labelled as that for years. It is true that we have been blessed with guys who are

athletic enough and explosive enough that their performances are ones that the people want

to come out and see.

So you find a person, probably like myself, who just tries to concentrate and get the most out of

our limited talent. We let our talent speak, our performances speak for themselves.

IB : But I didn't have any problems playing under Brian Lara, nor did I have any problem

under Shiv . They all had individual strengths.

But when you play as a team, it is a matter of how you fit into the team concept and

what you are trying to achieve as a team. That is what we tried to focus on in the team

when I was there.

SJ: What were you thinking when Chanderpaul was out with the score on 147? What was said between you and Courtney when you walked in, and when the partnership was developing?


IB: One thing I remember is the English guys celebrating when they got Shiv out. They were ecstatic. We came back and watched them on the video. They probably thought at that time that Shiv was the last hurdle they had to get past.
