Re: Women's Cricket World Cup.

Ah mean it was not too long ago, the West Indies did something, that I am sure will be rather illusive for awhile to come.  Talking about the under 20  World cup, the Women and also the men won this thing.

Now ah fraid to watch them.  The Indies now is a joke team in all phrases.

I think they are still much respected, because of Holding, Sobers, Viv, Lloyd, Andy Roberts and others. But, ah doh see the Glory days ever coming back.

NH is very arrogant as well as sexist! Believe me for I am being mild. He hates Jamaicans but his wife is a Jamaican; he hates teachers, but Jamaican teachers gave him the confidence to have an industrious career which led him to Africa and across the raas globe! Such blasted contradictions! I want to go upside-down his damned head! You're right Dancer, NH knows nothing about cricket!

Totally agree, but how the hell you go from being the most respected and best team in the world to where we are today?

Ah doh mind being mediocre, but we below mediocre. Take a look at the Indians or any other serious Cricket team Body language, they are serious and come to play.  Not WT, they look is we are here just because.

Holding, Roberts, Viv, Sobers, Lloyd and these kinds of players, took  the game of cricket very seriously.  I think it was Holding who said every game of cricket he played meant something to him.  It was life or death.
