The West Indies team seems to be in a state of confusion. It is executing the basic skills poorly and has experienced a breakdown in leadership, teamwork, self-worth, self-discipline, and self-motivation.

In professional sport one can never overestimate the importance of self-discipline and self-motivation. The level of a player’s performance depends largely on the depth of his motivation and self-discipline. In fact, experts in performance now claim that at the highest levels of sport the correlation between self-discipline/motivation and performance is twice as large as the correlation between ability and performance.
