In my estimation, and from what I have seen, the West Indies Cricket Board has not been very active. They have not been doing much.
Do you believe the Board needs to be more active, or are they pulling they weight?
What are your views?

Lol. You are too controversial. The cricket board is indeed active. Actively trying to keep themselves in the position that they are in right now, where they seem to be locked away from the real issues. Lol.

  • No effective governance equates to chaos and anarchy. Wilkins was requested to make governance recommendations which he duly produced and was promptly ignored. Wilkins resigned. This really is the biggest problem.
  • I believe the selection of key officers are Afro biased to the exclusion of the real captains of industry and people who have established and sustained successful businesses.
  • Fostering, championing and preserving prejudice, bias and insularity. Why would Sammy be selected captain at a time, and even now, could not get into the team? He still is captain.
  • The previous regime insisted, unjustly, in over promoting the smaller islands in terms of players selection and the allocation of fixtures with some tours being played to empty stadia. Some 75% of fixtures being played to about 8% of the region's population.
  • Far too many stadia in the smaller islands for common sense and per capita.
  • Losing some 31 matters in the Law Courts reducing their already empty coffers by millions.
In summary all of the problems are down to a lack of effective, embedded and practiced governance.

This list is not exhaustive.

If you run any organisation without rules then.....mayhem.

This is why I love conversing you guys. I have been berated so many times as a female for talking about these issues. I believe that they are just a mammoth waste of time and resources. They are as about as inept as my dog trying to sing. If I come across too strongly, I am afraid I will not apologize.
I am grossly disappointed and upset.

These are the real issues, and not many persons realize or know this. The cricket board has been inactive (in my view) for years. They have done nothing substantial. What is their purpose? Smh.

Quite so. The problems are glaring and obviously pronounced. The vast majority looking on do not see and acknowledge this, because they are not keen to the issues at hand. The WICB has not been active in a long while, and is just wasting the resources there.

They won six test matches in a row to go along with a world cup win .
The A team is beating the Indian A team right now and to say that theWest Indies board is inactive is inaccurate and unfair to them

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0
