This topic  is avoided  when  Windies cricket decline is discussed but circumstantial and anecdotal evidence points to the fact that a conscious effort is made to exclude and marginalised cricket players of Indian descent from the west indies team. 
When there are two players of equal abilities , one black and one indian , inevitably the black players is pushed  and given many opportunities to succeed, an example of this would be Narsing and Devon Smith
In one swoop Sarwan Narsing and  Ramdin were denied central contracts and at the same time Chanderpaul wasbeing pushed to retire . It seems that when they are forced to play Indians on account of ability  ,  the windies management structure realy hopes that they fail and even a minor slump by these players is a ticket out of the team an eg. of this  being Ramnarine and Nagamootoo. 
TO BE CONTINUED  but in the mean time feel free to add other examples in this line of thinking

wait kawmi are you suddenly saying racism is a negative thing? you were supporting the burning and beating and killing of Jamaican chinese shop keepers not long ago and saying Jamaican whites have no place in the west indies but now it seems racism is something that needs to be done away with? ohhh i see racism is appropriate only when it is commited against whites or asians any other time it is evil and uncalled for behavior. i see.  :azn: :azn: :azn: :azn:

[/quote] my views on chinese and whites has not changed , them being the opressor  class and only takes and never gives.
The tensions or problems that exists    among Indians and blacks  are more in line of a family dispute and it would be resolved .
