yuh know I reading westindies histree trying to think of this time-line ting Bally arks for and from wat I see Skunt hunte and dem represent a simple pendulum swing of the same shit dat flow for a century plus now, to the current dots.
by the time deh star pik westindies 11's, where finances did not contstrain dem deh picked like the skunt and buutsy piks currently...in a way dat caused westindies defeat not westindies success
about de only time westindies was pik fairly was under worrell. before and aftah dat westindies selection always some bias involve...small or large
undah Sobers, LLoyd, Richards there wassant so much because there were great players who almost selected themselves.
under Richardson we have the type of selection that most mirrors what used to happen in the 1890s up to 1939...a kind of selection that satisfied the needs of the westindian elites.
they picked for richie as deh now tending to pik fuh sammy...players who dem fella cyan lead...not necessarily the best players available. so if yu want to play fuh de westindies yuh better be a nice guy who wun' give Sammy trouble

Googs....West Indies could hardly win a few consecutive matches... As much as we all would like to see the cup, the chances are slim. Here is the Windies ODI record for the last year
WI will always play catch up cricket since they starting off at a disadvantage with the team selected. Yeah they will pull a surprise once in a while against the big teams.

one thing i must say, Maps is a WI cricket historian and usually report the information accurately. Once in a while we got to test him out!
Yes Maps, Rohan brought in real talents during his run....he looked for talent and discipline. Guess, where he learned that from? Worrell!
