General Cricket Talk : Windies cricket woes

Author: SledgerSubject: Windies cricket woesPosted: 13 June 2011 at 6:38amCertainly the squabbling in the background amongst both the management and the players is not helping Windies cricket at all.  The whole setup strikes me as amatuerish in the extreme and whilst that might have been okay in the 60's and even through to the 80's , it leaves them with a huge disadvantage in the game today.  Remember , the great sides on the 70's and 80's still had to deal with officialdom which , at best was flakey , at worst shambolic.  That they came through was because the players had pride and not a little skill !   The current players seem driven only by money - simply put , they're unprofessional - they have some fine players , but their attitude leaves a lot to be desired.
