Know Your Team - West Indies

Sir vivian richards team were called the devils as they were a phobia to their opposition and they never lost a test series from 1984 to 1991. The bowlers,batsmen and allrounders...It was the perfect combination. They were aggressive, ruthless and devastating towards their opponents.

But the present team has been quite pathetic for a while and can be expected to continue in the same way....some might call them the dark horse for the cup but really??? they dont play as a unit as the golden days of the past,dont be surprised if Chris Gayle uses wc as warm up for his T20 stint in IPL......They lack consistency and the will to play for the country and now they slipped below bangladesh in rankings....The only possibility of them performing well in wc would be if kieron pollard plays to his potential, but he looks like another Gayle in the making ..... Whats the use if u can win 1 in 10 matches in a knockout tournament.....The only thing they can be hopeful is that they know the sub continent condition well and have performed decently here.....Lets hope they don't become another minnows in the tournament. We already have a lot of teams in that category.
