A stance has been made by the players and a process has started.
Saying anything will make no difference for now anyway.
Give it a week or two with no action and you may then hear players speaking out.
The thing that needs to happen first is Wavell has to step down and the members need to take action so that is what I am disappointed about.
He is showing no integrity, but am I surprised?
Believe Dino stepped down, didn't he?

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

I agree Krish but with the history of deception and mistrust it is understandable the tour was terminated. You obviously know better than I do!
The WICB once again felt they could bully the situation and it backfired.
I do not think the Windies have ever pulled out of a tour before, have they?
I believe india did against South Africa!
Call me naive but I really thought the WICB was making real changes and now!

And that is what I mean!
Arrogance, my way or the highway, and bullying tactics and it backfired.
You cannot separate the ICC and BCCI right now!
In the end Windies will get off and the danger of that is keeping the doors open for similar future misbehaviour.

Three WICB directors have told ESPNcricinfo that, contrary to speculative reports in the Caribbean media, no decision has been taken to sack the three international captains: Denesh Ramdin (Test), Dwayne Bravo (ODI) and Darren Sammy (Twenty20).
On Tuesday some of the directors had a meeting over teleconference, including WICB president Dave Cameron, but the WICB did not issue any release. According to Azim Bassarath, who did not participate in the conference call, no one had informed him about the trio being removed. He said the task force set up by the three warring parties – players, WICB and WIPA – would report back with steps to resolve the situation. According to him, the next board of directors meeting was scheduled for December 13 in Jamaica.
Another director, who briefly attended the conference call, denied any decision had been taken. “We have not selected the squad yet [for South Africa] so I don’t know where that news is coming from. We had a teleconference meeting, I did not stay for the full duration of the meeting. I am not told yet [of anything decision] because I would have the benefit of [what happened] at the meeting. I am told there is another meeting this Thursday and possibly the matter will come up there. I also heard Clive Lloyd will join that meeting. But I am yet to hear about the Thursday meeting officially.â€
Meanwhile, a third director said he could not say “whether that is true or not true†but declined to make any further comments.

It will be interesting to see where they go with this team next. I just hope that they won't sack them all.

Not surprise that West Indies cricket has reach this stage, any blind man could have see this coming. This situation hasn't just started, this fiasco been going on for the longest time. Throughout the Brain Lara time, things of this nature been happening, and yet nothing were done to stop this from continuing in the only recognize sport in the region.
Too often people let self interest overshadow respect and integrity. This is quite evident in players like Gayle, Bravo and most of the other mediocrity the West Indies has for players. My God, how many of these players would you even consider selecting to represent you in international cricket? The WICB has allowed these so call professionals to take over our national sport with their greed and disrespect for the game of cricket.
Why would anyone bother about this scandalous situation, India has much of the blame to this, as the West Indies. India has put money before cricket, this is evident, in the crappy one day cricket that's being played in that country, called IPL. The West Indies should be ban from International cricket after this latest piece, and the bandits that were on the tour, ban world wide from the sport. Let's see what part India plays in helping this.
