Quote:Buoyed by a few good recent performances, especially their stunning victory at Leeds, West Indies fans would have approached the New Zealand series hoping their beloved team had left behind their lacklustre past and was heading into a brighter future. But, as the series progressed, as the Caribbean side suffered loss after crushing loss, the feeling that came to the fore was one of disappointment. The fans expected much; the team delivered very little.
Windies lost every completed international game on tour, losing all three tests, all three One Day Internationals (ODIs), and two of three Twenty20 games. The other was washed out after just nine overs.
Those of us who might have overreacted to the Leeds victory, thinking it heralded a new dawn in West Indies cricket, have had to reevaluate our outlook.
