    It’s really a festival that has our cricketers more focused on the festivities than on improving their game. The board, selectors and players are all confused and we the fans are left embarrassed.

    Another useless tournament. It would not surprise me if a school team from England or Australia would beat our senior teams. These players shine in the West Indies, but as soon as they are exposed to real cricketers, we all see the flaws in their techniques and temperament.
