Does this forum believe it is better for West Indian cricket if the West Indies dissolve and break down back into regional, i.e. Jamaica, barbados, squads? I don't know what the politics are behind the islands and I won't pretend to do so, but I would think a united team would be stronger on the world stage than 5 or 6 mediocre teams?

The politics is straight forward : Loyalty to Money.

and the support comes from the Islands that has the most IPL players.

Their Board also gets a few shackles of silver for no objection waiver !

Thanks for your considered opinion but as Chin says and I know, QPO is privately owned.

Good for QPO if indeed it is privately owned : will check with the Moose.

Perfect scenario to REFUSE  WICB that "private" Venue and "bring them to knee"

The rest of W.I. Venues are Government owned.

QPO is privately owned but the Government is the one who has been paying the CPL!

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
