    I am not a supporter of Andre Flecher but I must congratulate him. Skeritt saw his magnificient performances, therefore, I hope he gets his Dominican citizenship like Chanderpaul.

    Congratulations West Indies Team. Happy to know that you won. You made West Indians worldwide proud of you.
    Fletcher excelled; a great cricketer who is now jubilant. You have reasons.
    New Zealand tried their best. I think the heat could have been too much for them. :)

    Hope your stay was hospitable and an enjoyable one. Return to Dominica sometime. :)

    Congrats Windies. The game was very entertaining. For the first time ever we got a victory from the stadium. I am so elated. I enjoyed the gallop dance that Captain Sammy did on stage after the show. He also had his large Dominican fan base spellbound with that skillful wine.
