West Indies Focus on World Cup Plans, Not Whitewash Over Bangladesh - chairman - 08-25-2014
Captain Dwayne Bravo says the West Indies are more focussed on building their unit in preparation for next year's ICC Cricket World Cup, than completing a series whitewash over Bangladesh.
The hosts enter Monday's third and final One-Day International against Bangladesh with a 2-0 lead after big wins in their previous games but Bravo insists their motivation to win has nothing to do with thoughts of a clean sweep. (Pollard Seeks Consistency for West Indies)
"We just want to focus on one game at a time. Yes we've won the series but we want to improve on our last performance and keep improving as a team," the all-rounder told reporters on Sunday.
"So if we win the next game, yes it's a whitewash but it's not the main reason we want to play Monday. We're building towards the World Cup in 2015 so we're just trying to play as much cricket together as a group and win as much games as possible."
"We want to finish the series strongly and win the third game as well but it's just about being the best one-day team we can be. We will keep encouraging the guys to achieve greatness and just look forward to the last game."
The West Indies won the opening game last Wednesday by three wickets at the National Stadium in Grenada before crushing the Bangladeshis by 177 runs in the second contest three days later at the same venue.
The pair of victories gave the regional side an unassailable lead in the three-match series, ahead of the day/night game at Warner Park.

Greatness can only achieved when you WIN against :
the #1 ~ #5 Competitors !!
NOT the # 9 and #10 ..... out of 10 Teams

I think West Indies should focus on the World Cup instead of White Washing over Bangladesh. The World Cup is more important.
